Amitabh Bachchan and Ayushmann Khurrana’s Gulabo Sitabo has been creating a buzz online since it was announced that it would be released exclusively on Amazon Prime. The film has not only got everyone talking about setting a new trend amid the pandemic, but its dialogues have sparked a meme-fest online. Now, even the cops are using it to convey important messages.
Nagpur Police, in its latest social media post, used a line from the film, warning people not to share their OTP. The cops said one can be “lured for riches like Haveli and jaydaad”, but when someone asks for the code, people should say, “Kuch Keh Nahi Sakte (Can’t be said)”.
The tweet received many likes on the platform and netizens are lauding the team behind it for using contemporary memes, with one saying, “You really are the ‘#Begum’ when it comes to awareness campaigns!”. The tweet even impressed the film’s director Shoojit Sircar who said, “Absolutely right.”
