The Internet has so many things to convey, so much humor to leave us to laugh for the whole day, and so many miracles to show. And something of the latter happened when a netizen shared the picture of an old man who is looking exactly like our Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Yes!
Would you Believe if I say he is not our PM @narendramodi but Modi Ji’s Look-alike 😵😵😵#namo #PMModi #duplicate #IndianRailways pic.twitter.com/HGmIOcAIdy

Yes! He found the doppelganger of our Modi. And soon after he shared the picture on the internet, it went viral attracting huge attention from all kind of people, taking this picture, even India’s leading PodCast All India Bakchod (AIB) took on to their Twitter handle and shared their version of fun triggering post.
Despite being the idea of the doppelganger, AIB shared the picture in an uncasual way, they added a dog filter to the right picture in the collage mentioning ‘Wanderlust’ at the top. This tweet from the AIB has drawn huge criticism, some bashed the channel calling them anti-nationalistic, another simply ended up calling it a cheap idea to publicize themselves in such a way.
(below picture is the screenshot of the AIB’s tweet, which was deleted post the criticism)

Meanwhile, right after this tweet, a Twitter user threatened the channel claiming that the legal authorities must charge a probe and take the issue seriously.
After facing much backlash from the public, AIB took down their post and now, the left-wing people started trolling AIB for posting and removing the tweet, people called it an inconsistent and illogical channel.

Now AIB should just stick to making anti-Congress sketches which they did with much pride during our regime, ab woh FOE yaad nahi!

> @thetanmay always known & said AIB are cowards. Dont have guts to criticise Modi as they do RG. Which is why I don’t watch or follow AIB. https://t.co/1Jfgt6srbt

Now going back into time, back then, Tanmay Bhat faced the severe backlash when he made some imitating videos of Lata Mangeshkar and Sachin Tendulkar. And this time, he along with his AIB’s member Rohan Joshi decided to defend their stand and poured in a series of tweets clarifying their transparency in every tweet they post or delete, the duo stated that it is their wish, and they will post or delete any tweet if they like, added that they will not stop doing the same.
Congress leaders and BJP trolls both getting mad over a goddamn silly snapchat filter meme smh

You actually hold some responsibility. Waking up in the morning and trying to shame some comedians for deleting a meme. Ispe utar gaye ho.

And that’s how he ended it like a boss:
PS: Will continue making jokes. And deleting if necessary. And making jokes again. And Apologizing if necessary. Don’t care what you think.
