An unusual sight from Bihar’s Patna has left social media users both confused and entertained after reportedly a former SBI ATM in Danapur was converted into a hair salon while still retaining its original ATM signage outside.
The now-viral video shows what appears to be a regular State Bank of India ATM from the outside. However, instead of a cash dispensing machine, customers walking in are greeted by barbers cutting hair inside the outlet.
Watch the Video:
According to reports, the ATM had earlier functioned as a regular SBI cash kiosk before being shut down. The space was later rented out and converted into a salon.
However, the SBI ATM board and ATM-style exterior setup were reportedly left unchanged, making the shop appear like a functioning ATM from outside.
