Apple iPhone X went up for sale on Friday amid much hype in India and in many other countries across the world. The iPhone X, considered by many as the best iPhone till date, generated an equally terrific market response despite its towering prices. While hour-long queues and much anticipation was experienced at many Apple stores, a man from Mumbai decided to take the excitement one notch up. The man, identified as Mahesh Pallival, pre-booked an Apple iPhone X for himself and after the smartphones were made available, went to the Apple store to collect the device, riding a horse and accompanied by a band playing drums all the way.

In several pictures and videos now doing rounds on the internet, Pallival can be seen riding a horse and surrounded by drummers, with the entire scenario seeming to be just like a marriage procession. A couple of people with the procession also held placards that read "I love iPhone X". Pallival reached Thane's Hariniwas circle to collect his iPhone X at 6:30 pm, Friday, where he collected his iPhone X in an equally grand manner, as the store owner himself handed him the device.
