If you are fond of cars, you must have heard of the legendary Rolls-Royce cars, which are known for their luxury and class.The four-wheeler has been on the list of the most expensive cars since the very beginning of the car industry in the world. Rolls-Royce cars are the pride and joy of their owners, who have a passion for luxury and expensive things.The art of engineering in these cars still amuses fans in the modern era.But there was a time when the Rolls-Royce car company was humiliated by one of the Indian kings known for his wealth, glamour, and adventurous lifestyle. He was one of the most powerful rulers of his time, the Maharaja of Alwar Jai Singh Prabhakar.

In the year 1882, Maharaja Jai Singh Prabhakar was born in Alwar, a state of Rajasthan. After his father, King Mangal Singh Prabhakar, he became the king of Alwar. Maharaja Jai Singh had a reputation for being whimsical.He was known for his lavish lifestyle,unrestrained parties, and eccentric hobbies.It is also said that once he ordered a special train to transport his favourite horse to Bombay, where he booked a suite for it in a five-star hotel.This is a brief introduction to him. But once, he humiliated the famous Rolls-Royce car company and did it in style. He did it to take revenge against the famous car manufacturer, whom he felt insulted him during his visit to London. According to the story, in the year 1920, Maharaja Jai Singh was walking through the streets of London and saw the showroom. As he was attracted to expensive cars, he quickly went into the showroom.Though he was living a glamorous life, in those days he was dressed in ordinary clothes. When he went in and asked to see some cars, the salesman ignored him and treated him rudely by looking at his ordinary clothes. The salesman might have thought he could not afford that expensive car, as he looked like just another poor Indian. It was very insulting to the king, and he got so furious that he decided to teach a lesson.The next day, he returned to the showroom, but this time he was in his royal attire and accompanied by the royal guards. He was greeted with a red carpet and a grand welcome by the staff, who were ashamed of their behavior and realized their mistakes. After getting the royal treatment, King Jai Singh bought all six cars that were in the showroom and paid for them on the spot. Moreover, he ordered four more cars to be delivered to India in his palace.After all these royalties, he has already earned respect, and the car company got embarrassed, but the story does not end here.

When the first six cars arrived in India, instead of using them for personal use, he ordered the municipality to use them for collecting garbage from the road. He asked to tie brooms in front of all the cars and clean the roads by using the car and carrying all the garbage in it. Can anyone think about it? The most expensive cars in the world are being used for transporting garbage in India. The cars worked in this way in front of all the British in India. This is how Maharaja humiliated Rolls Royce, showed them that their cars were not worthy of his respect, and taught them the lesson that they should not judge anyone by their clothes or appearance.
This incident caused a sensation in India and abroad. Rich people around the globe were shocked, and their desire for Rolls-Royce was decreasing. The car company feared that their reputation and sales would suffer for this. So they sent their officials, apologized for the behavior in the London showroom, and requested the Maharaja not to use the cars for collecting garbage.They also offered him six more cars for free as a gesture of goodwill. After teaching them a lesson that people should not be judged by their clothes, Maharaja finally forgives them and stops using the cars as garbage trucks.
