Pune: We trust External Affairs minister Sushma Swaraj for prompt action on and off Twitter. We have seen people from all over the world asking for her help, and she has never disappointed anyone. But even she would be at her wit’s end when a Pune man tweeted her with a unique request on August 5. The fact that his request involved Shah Rukh Khan, whose Jab Harry Met Sejal came out on August 4, made it even more relevant. The film also stars Anushka Sharma and has been directed by Imtiaz Ali.
Though Vishal Raghuvanshi, who works in a Pune-based company, posted his message on August 5, but it caught everyone’s attention much later. And since then, everyone is chuckling over this.
Well, without creating anymore suspense, let us reveal what he actually did that made him the internet’s instant favorite.
This is what he tweeted: @SushmaSwaraj mam, I’m watching #JabHarryMetSejal at Xion cinema Hinjewadi, Pune. Please rescue me as soon as possible.
Though Sushma Swaraj didn’t respond to it, but she must have been laughing over this.
Shah Rukh Khan and Anushka film Jab Harry Met Sejal released on Friday, August 4, to really average reviews. In fact, some called it one of the worst Shah Rukh Khan film in recent years.
So, it was quite natural for the twitterati to react to Vishal Raghuvanshi’s tweet with funny memes and messages.
