Four lucky winners were given diamond rings as the bumper prize. But the whole exercise turned out to be a series of comical errors. First, the rings came in small boxes labelled ‘Lucky Jewellers, Bairagarh’. When NDTV spoke to its owner, Mahesh Dadlani, he said they don’t sell diamonds. The winners confirmed they got…
