In this captivating episode, Ramya and Rachel take you on a historical journey, starting from a time when 10 grams of gold cost just ₹88 in 1947 to the staggering ₹52,000 it costs today. For a bit of perspective, back then, a Mumbai to Delhi flight was more expensive than gold, whereas now you can fly for as low as ₹999. They explore how gemstones and diamonds have shaped our early history and delve into how gold influences not only our fashion but also our savings habits.
