An Indian national identified as Mithilesh Prasad has shocked the internet with his latest creations. He transformed his Tata Nano compact city car into a helicopter by integrating some basic element of a helicopter into the hatchback.
Born in Simari village in Baniyapur, the 24 years old pipe fitter has always dreamt of constructing a helicopter and flying in it as well. A dream he couldn't fulfill but decided to use his car to live it out.
The car now looking like a helicopter has drawn a lot of attention in Chhapra city, Bihar State, India.

Despite that the car can't fly, it's has been equipped with some features like tail boom, main rotor and tail rotor prevalent in a helicopter. The side panels and rotors also came with bright colored LED lights.
This creation wasn't completed in a day. Naijauto gathered that Mithilesh spent seven months constructing it and he was assisted by his brother. The project cost him seven lakh rupees (~N3.6 million).

When Mithilesh was interviewed about his creation, he said,
"It was my dream since childhood that I construct a helicopter on my own and fly in it. But I don't have a strong background so I made my car look like a helicopter."
Mithilesh only passed out from 12th grade in school and even though he might not get to build or fly a helicopter, he's content to drive on the road with his helicopter car.
