In the retail market, they are selling between Rs 150-200 per kilogramme thus weighing heavily on people's finances, including restaurants and food manufacturers that rely on this versatile ingredient to a large extent. However, in a bizarre incident a woman based in Dubai sent her mother 10 kilograms of tomatoes on her request.

A Twitter user sharing her Dubai-based sister's unusual gift to their mother in India wrote, "My sister is coming to India from Dubai for her children's summer holidays and she asked my mum if she wanted anything from Dubai and my mother said bring 10 kilos of tomatoes. And so now she has packed 10kg tomatoes in a suitcase and sent it."
