    Who are Nitish Kumar and Chandrababu Naidu? And why is Indian twitter teasing Modi about them?

    Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, contrary to popular expectations, is seeing a major blow in the elections. The strongman of the right-wing Hindutva BJP, seeking a third term as Premier, could not get a clear majority. While his opponents are celebrating the unexpected result, Indian Twitter is having a riot about Nitish Kumar and Chandrababu Naidu, who have emerged as key players in the elections. The two politicians are popular for their secular leanings yet are known for changing their positions frequently.

    Indian publications like NDTV are making headlines, such as “Lok Sabha Election 2024 Result: India Congress may send feelers to Chandrababu Naidu, Nitish Kumar.”

    The leading coalitions- that of Narendra Modi’s National Democratic Alliance (NDA) and Rahul Gandhi’s Indian National Development Inclusive Alliance (INDIA)-are trying to include the two in their bloc.

    Kumar and Naidu have traditionally allied with the Congress and are meeting with them today. Meanwhile, Twitter users are having a riot with memes.

    A user posted a video of a movie scene in which a man is busy with several incoming calls, with the caption “Nitish Kumar right now.”

    Another netizen made fun by using a scene from Johny Lever’s movie where he could be seen telling another character that even though I am looking elsewhere, my heart belongs to you.

    An X user quoted the famous Shahrukh Khan reference of “Palat” as the voice of INDIA.

    Another account posted a video of a man lured by two ladies at the same time and suggested that this could be Nitish at the moment.

    Another meme that is gaining a lot of traction is of Gandhi smiling, quoting, “Aa gaya sawaad.”

    ‘Paani mai doobi shimla mirch’, Sushant Singh’s girlfriend Rhea reveals what happened to her in Indian jail

    Late Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s girlfriend, actress Rhea Chakraborty, has shared details about the harrowing time she spent in jail after a media witch-hunt, following the heartthrob’s suicide.

    In a recent interview, Rhea revealed that her time in jail was the toughest, as she was kept alone in a room for 14 days because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

    “The food provided had to be eaten; they would ask if I was hungry and served dry rotis with water-soaked bell peppers.”

    The actress said she found her source of being positive in her fellow inmates. “I started feeling grateful when I saw that many prisoners don’t have family support. Or they don’t have Rs. 5,000 or Rs. 10,000 for their bail. At least, I have my family and friends. I told myself, ‘You will get justice. You will get bail. You have not done anything wrong. I have so much to learn from these women while I am here. Why am I wasting my time sulking about what is not in my control?’” she said.

    Rhea Chakraborty described the jail routine, stating, “Breakfast at 6 am, lunch at 11 am, and dinner at 2 pm were provided. Some would save lunch for later, but I thought if the food isn’t good, it shouldn’t be eaten cold, so I stuck to my routine.”

    Regarding the investigations into Sushant Singh Rajput’s suicide, Rhea Chakraborty has faced allegations from Sushant’s family, which she vehemently denies. She continues to demand a transparent investigation into Sushant’s death from Prime Minister Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah.
