"Apple's first store in India opens in Mumbai," wrote the dairy brand on Instagram. In the quirky doodle, we could see the Amul girl seated with Apple CEO Tim Cook. The duo was enjoying a plate each of buttered toasts, with butter smeared on the CEO's fingers. In the classic Apple way of naming their products, Amul also joined the fun by making a product called 'iMaska'. "iMaska for all," they wrote as the header text. They also tried a clever pun with the word 'Cook' and mentioned the tagline, "Cook with it!"
