Raja D King’s ‘iPhone Langar’ Set for September 22 in Chandigarh

Rakesh Trehan, the man most people know as ‘Raja D King’, has sparked a fresh wave of chatter on social media. He says he will host an ‘iPhone Langar’ in Chandigarh on September 22, handing out the brand‑new iPhone 17 as a sort of spiritual offering. The timing, he claims, was whispered to him by a divine voice he calls ‘Jai Mata Di’.

“I was expecting the date to come after the 21st – maybe five, ten or even fifteen days later,” he told ANI. “But ‘Jai Mata Di’ told me it’s September 22.” He smiled, then added that the event will run from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m., and that there’s “no bias, no favourites”. In fact, he even invited the media to livestream the whole thing, as if to prove there’s nothing underhanded about it.

For Trehan, the whole giveaway is more than a publicity stunt. He described his journey as a long, solitary devotion, a kind of renunciation that led him to seek out the divine source of all blessings. “I gave up everything I owned, everything I cared for, just to understand ‘Jai Mata Di’, the source of everything we receive,” he said, his voice dropping into a reverent hush.

The plan, according to the self‑styled devotee, is just the beginning. “From September 22 onward, you’ll see similar ‘langars’ wherever ‘Jai Mata Di’ guides us,” he promised. He hinted that on the same day, ten other Punjabi cities would be named as future venues, with another rollout slated for the 5th of the following month, and a cascade of events spreading across 15 cities after that. “One day we’ll cover the whole world,” he added with a grin.

Why the iPhone 17, and not an older model? Trehan explained that initially ‘Jai Mata Di’ suggested any iPhone would do – 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 – but the divine voice later insisted on the newest version. “If we gave out an iPhone 16, someone would ask, ‘Why didn’t I get a 17?’ So we dropped the 16. Only the iPhone 17, worth about ₹1 lakh, will be handed out,” he said.

While some fans are buzzing with excitement, skeptics remain cautious. Still, the promise of a free, top‑tier Apple phone framed as a blessed offering has captured imaginations across social platforms, and the upcoming livestream will tell whether the event lives up to its spiritual hype.

Whether you see it as a divine act, a clever marketing move, or simply a generous giveaway, the ‘iPhone Langar’ is set to make a splash in Chandigarh – and perhaps, soon, far beyond its borders.
