Twitterati Slammed Subhash Chandra For Taking A Dig At The Coldplay Concert, Gets Grammar Lesson Too

After months of waiting, Coldplay finally performed to a jampacked Mumbai venue on November 19, along with several other eminent international artistes such as AR Rehman, Jay Z and Demi Lovato.

The internet, since the performance, has been flooded with videos and photographs from the event. Martin did his absolute best to include Mumbai and India within the concert breaking into Channa Mereya, Maa Tujhe Salaam with our very own A.R. Rahman perform on the same stage.

While the whole Coldplay in Mumbai rage took over social media, media mogul and Rajya Sabha member Subhash Chandra was apparently quite ‘saddened’.

Subhash Chandra, previously the Chairman of Zee Media and currently a Member of the Rajya Sabha, took to Twitter to express his displeasure on the actions of Indian youth at the Coldplay event.

With a couple of tweets, he expressed his disappointment that people thronged the Coldplay performance, while he wondered if they knew as much about India’s cultural heritage and art forms.

But, it seems that Chandra’s message struck a discord with Indian twitterati. His thoughts didn’t went down well with many who labelled him as a hypocrite for criticising the concert while his productin company releases ‘item songs’ and ‘threesome’ scenes. Also some pointed out him for correcting at his grammar mistake too.

Twitterati was quick to troll the media baron for his ‘sanskari tweet’. Here’s what they said:

1. Such sanskar!

2. Much wow!

3. Alok Nath would be proud!

4. What profound lyrics!

5. And artful TV shows!

6. So brilliantly insightful!

7. At least run a spell check before accusing an entire generation of going to waste.

8. Mr Khatri at his hilarious best! 

9. You knew you had that coming!

I think that response should be lesson enough. I’m sure Mr Chandra will think twice, and run a spell check another dozen times before going off on a Twitter rant ever again!
