Alok Nath jokes trend on Twitter
India Today Online New Delhi, December 30, 2013 | UPDATED 14:34 IST
TV and film actor Alok Nath.
"Our nation only learnt about heart-attacks because of Alok Nath," said the first tweet.
This was followed by another tweet by another user: "Alok Nath wears sweater in Mumbai because his mom in Punjab felt cold".
And this opened the floodgate, pushing the soft-spoken veteran Bollywood actor to the number one trending topic in India on Twitter on Monday, with users racking their brains for funnier jibes and photos.
The actor does not seem to be on Twitter to reply to the jibes.
Ironically, Alok Nath was trending even faster with many tweets wondering why the Hum Aapke Hain Koun actor was suddenly trending after all, like this one: "Alok Nath still trending??"
Most of the jokes are centred on the word 'sanskar' (Indian values) and are reminiscent of the ones cracked on southern megastar Rajinikanth.
