In latest news, Mumbai Police has another epic response to Uday Chopra’s tweet on why India should legalise marijuana.

Mumbai Police on Saturday, 15 September, reminded Twitterati of the ‘savage’ cop Jay Dixit from the ‘Dhoom’ franchise. Jay, played by Abhishek Bachchan was always pulling up Ali in the films. Uday Chopra plays Ali in the franchise.

Mumbai Police, in their tweet, asked Uday Chopra to be mindful after the actor created viral chatter on Twitter supporting legalisation of marijuana in India. Chopra presented a few arguments to support his demand, which included, “it’s part of Indian culture” and has “medical benefits”.

This is the original tweet by Uday Chopra.

He later tweeted that he does not use the substance.

When asked what history was he referring to, he listed the use of ‘Bhaang’ or hemp during the festival of Holi.

It reminded Twitterati of how Bachchan’s character always had a savage reply ready for Ali’s not-so-brilliant questions.
