Imagine a house, mansion or an apartment of a wealthy individual. What all things do you expect to see inside the house. Especially in the living area? A plush couch or sofa, expensive paintings and furnitures, entertainment unit and so on. A car is probably not even the last thing in your list when you think of a living room of a house. However a video from Mumbai has been going viral on the internet after someone spotted not just any car but, a Rolls Royce Ghost parked in the living room of a luxury apartment. However is it actually true? Let’s find out.
