Tough times calls for special intervention and Selvakumar Tharmalinggam, 22, from Slim RIver, Perak has taken on the Superhero avatar, selling a Malaysian favorite Petai - stinky beans since last July.
His Instagram page 'Spiderman Petai' - has a quirky note to Petai fans - 'To Kiss After Eating Petai, Would Be A Sign Of True Love."
He was since spotted in Kuala Kubu Bharu, Batang Kali selling the fresh Petai and entertaining Spiderman fans who never fail to stop and get a photo with their favorite Superhero.
Fans can also catch the entertaining Spiderman Petai at the Slim RIver night market (Pasar Malam Slim River).
Selva who is pursuing a degree in Business Administration said he purchases the Petai from the Orang Asli (indigenous) community in Perak.
Coming from a humble background and only having his grandmother's support, Selva said he has to get creative to earn some extra income to support their daily expenses.
"I had to do something different to make sure I stand out in the crowd and since I'm a Spiderman fan, so I thought why not be Spiderman Petai," he said in a telephone interview.
To enjoy the fresh Petai, he says you have to place your order a week in advance.
The stinky beans are available for self-collection upon order and delivery to your homes can also be arranged.
Drop him a message on Instagram or WA to order now!
