‪@RezwanRazack‬ is most known as the managing director of the ‪@prestigegroupindia‬.
A lesser-known fact about Rezwan: he’s the largest collector of Indian currency notes in the world. His obsession has led him to build the Museum of Indian Paper Money.
His collection, over 5 decades in the making, is an insightful dive into the history of the nation as a whole: from cowrie shells, cash coupons, notes that became defunct post the partition to the exquisitely detailed Portuguese Indian notes that double up as art pieces.
