His statement further elaborated, "I wasted a lot of time trying to help newcomers and mostly ended up with mediocre s**. So, now onwards, I don't want to waste my time meeting random people who think they are creative geniuses. So I will now have rates. If someone wants to meet me for 10-15 minutes I will charge 1 lac, for half an hour 2 lacs and for 1 hour 5 lacs. That's the rate. I am tired of wasting time meeting people. If you really think you can afford it, call me or stay the f** away. And all paid in advance. (sic)."
