Want a handshake with Lionel Messi? Simple, just pay ₹1 crore and get access to closed-door meet-and-greet: Report

Lionel Messi will spend the last day of his GOAT India Tour in Delhi. As several events have been planned, it has been reported that some people are paying ₹1 crore for a handshake with the football legend.

A closed-door meet-and-greet is planned at The Leela Palace in Chanakyapuri for select corporate and VIP guests. NDTV reports that access is extremely expensive. Some companies are reportedly paying up to ₹1 crore for the chance to meet the World Cup winner. LiveMint could not independently verify the report.

Earlier, in Kolkata, a special meet-and-greet package allowed fans to get up close to Lionel Messi. The interaction was reportedly open to anyone who could pay ₹10 lakh.

Buyers apparently visited a hotel near EM Bypass, close to the Salt Lake Stadium. For 10 lakh, they were allowed to shake hands with Messi and get a photograph clicked while standing beside him during the exclusive interaction.
