All India Bakchod (AIB) has yet another FIR to it’s name for a notorious meme it shared featuring a Modi lookalike with a dog filter on Snapchat. The Mumbai Police Cyber Cell has now registered an FIR against the group for this reason. While it might be another reason for Modi bhakts to be offended, Tanmay Bhat’s Twitter timeline suggests that this might not be enough to worry him.
While the meme was online only temporarily, here’s a snapshot of what the joke was.
Though the comedian hasn’t commented on the new FIR, his previous tweets suggests how he really feels about those who lack a sense of humour.
Tanmay is probably wondering what the brouhaha is all about, when Modi ji himself encourages everyone to loosen up a bit.
Guess what Mr Bhat has pinned to the top of his Twitter timeline. But will this explanation suffice for Mumbai Police? We wait and watch.
