Story main line:
Mr. Rocky hero of our story likes cash, how much he likes cash as he likes gold in KGF but here is the twist is he likes to spend in Cash.
For doing business he got money as a loan from Inayat Khalil, deposits that money in the bank till he orders the Goods from supplier. For paying the goods he withdraws money from bank account and pay to the supplier.
He sold goods for cash only and again put that money in his bank account till next order.
This is our hero’s business model; you may have many logics why he is depositing and withdrawing money from bank account unnecessarily but the reason is he likes cash……
