Armed with budget brand cellphones which cost anywhere between Rs. 800 to Rs.2,000 with big screens for better video playback and expandable memory, the new category of customers can have access to porn 24X7 without the fuss of owning a CD player and a TV.
Moreover, the thumbnail sized memory card, loaded with hundreds of porn clips or movies, is easy to conceal in a wallet and used when required as against stacks of CDs and DVDs.
The shopkeepers can download hundreds of clips on the memory card ranging from 2 GB to 10 GB for anywhere between Rs.100 to 400 depending on the clips as well as bargaining skills.
Though the categories of the clips vary, the shopkeepers say it is the MMS clips, some real and some staged, which are the most favourite. Such clips are often shot in hotel rooms, hostels or cars with or without the consent of the couples in it.
"Kand (scandals) are the most in demand," said another shop owner to IANS with a leering smile and almost snatched my mobile phone from my hand, eager to fill it up with 'kands' at a "decent" price.
