Bihar: No Cash Inside SBI ATM, Now Offering Haircuts And Shaves; Leave People Stunned

Patna: A peculiar case has come to light in the Danapur area of ​​Bihar. Specifically in the Rupaspur locality, there is a spot where an SBI ATM signboard still hangs outside; however, the interior—once a space for cash withdrawals—now functions as a hair salon. From the outside, the premises look exactly like a fully operational State Bank of India ATM. The signboard, branding, and cabin structure remain entirely unchanged, leaving no room for suspicion. Yet, the moment someone steps inside to withdraw cash or check their account balance, they are greeted not by an ATM machine, but by salon chairs, mirrors, and hairdressing tools.

What is the issue?

According to local reports, this ATM had been operational at the 'Usha Villa' premises for several years. A few months ago, the ATM machine itself was removed from the site, but the exterior signboard was left intact. Subsequently, the vacant space was rented out to a salon owner. Now, this location has arguably become the source of Bihar's most confusing ATM experience. The story is going viral across social media platforms, with people offering a plethora of amusing reactions to this unique ATM-turned-salon.

What did social media users say?

Many social media users have even poked fun at the situation. Some remarked that customers now go in to withdraw cash and come out sporting a brand-new haircut. Others quipped that someone in a rush to withdraw money might accidentally end up booking a shave instead. The most widely discussed aspect remains the fact that, visually, the place still looks exactly like an ATM. Passersby continue to mistake it for a genuine ATM to this day; it is only upon stepping inside that one realizes this is a place for hairstyling, not cash withdrawals.
