A few days ago, a photo of billionaire (in dollars) Dr. Sudhir Ruparelia almost broke the internet- for the rarest of reasons; his fashion sense.

While officially inaugurating his latest $10 million, 12-storey Electrical Plaza on Market Street and Kiyembe Lane in the busy downtown Kampala, the 63-year old businessman took social media by storm.

Clad in all white- spotting skinny white ripped jeans, slightly folded at the hems and matching white shoes and milk-white cotton short sleeved shirt and a diamond stud in one of the ears, Dr. Sudhir’s photo, of him speaking to his daughter in-law Naiya Khagram attracted a lot of online attention and reviews.

MAN IN WHITE: Too hip at 63 years, Dr Sudhir together with his son Rajiv Ruparelia and daughter in-law Naiya Khagram, sports white shoes, shorts, t-shirt and fedora hat.

“All white everything. Skinny damaged jeans and all. 63 looks very good on Sudhir Ruparelia,” wrote lifestyle journalist and PR expert, Henry Ssali on his Facebook timeline.  

“With all due respect, I think the designer of Kaguta Museveni should talk to the designer of Uncle Sudhir,” wrote Lucky Mbabazi, a Radio/TV presenter on her twitter feed.
