“Rightly said. Its a meme. No one takes it seriously. ????,” a user wrote. “When you see memes with Mens in it, you know it’s not correct,” another user wrote. “Kitni bar Srk ko involve karoge promotion keliye, Directly or indirectly,” asked a third user.

Although the meme, Vivek showed his support to Jawan.
