Self-Isolation & Social Distancing Spark Hilarious Meme Fest On Twitter Amid COVID-19 Scare

There is no denying that the coronavirus outbreak has proved to be lethal for mankind. In fact, it won’t be wrong to say that it has brought our lives to halt as people are advised to stay at home and practice self-quarantine to stop the spreading of the dangerous virus. On one hand, schools, colleges, malls, multiplexes, etc. have been closed and on the other, any major or minor event where mass gathering is probable such as IPL has been postponed.

The central government and state governments are leaving no stone unturned in making the country safe as the stats of people affected with coronavirus is constantly increasing and has crossed the mark of 2,86,000 while more than 11,800 people have succumbed to this disease.

The Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has even appealed to public to practice Janta Curfew on 22nd March when people are advised to stay at home from 7am to 9pm and make loud noises at 5pm by clapping, blowing conch, etc. to cheer for those who have been working day and night to eradicate the disease. Well, this appears to be a great way to prevent India from entering the stage 3 of coronavirus which has been declared as a pandemic by the World Health Organization.

COVID-19 has indeed affected all the sectors, be it Bollywood or sports, industrial segment or stock market. For some time now, celebrities are urging public to stay indoors, work from home if possible, travel only if very necessary or just enjoy this time with family.

While the situation has been so grim, Indians still managed to find humour in it and as a result, various hilarious memes got circulated on the micro-blogging site Twitter under different hashtags like #CoronaStopKaroNa, #CoronaMemes and many others. Here are some of the selected ones that will tickle your funny bone and at the same time will make you realise the importance of self-quarantine:

KXIP Calls Chris Gayle Superior To Warner & Tweets About His Records, Gets An Epic Reply From SRH

IPL 2020 which was supposed to start on March 29 has been postponed till April 15 due to the coronavirus scare but it seems that the official Twitter handles of IPL teams are in no mood of taking some rest.

Recently, Twitterati witnessed a fun banter between the Twitter handles of IPL teams – Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH). It all began when the official Twitter handle of Star Sports compared King XI Punjab’s Chris Gayle and Sunrisers Hyderabad’s David Warner and asked everyone to tell who is more destructive.

Here is what Star Sports tweeted with the photos of David Warner and Chris Gayle,

“Power hitting is a part of @davidwarner31 and @henrygayle’s!

But which one do you think is the more destructive #VIVOIPL opener?

Convince us of your pick below, NOW”

Kings XI Punjab responded by talking about the records made by Chris Gayle and it tweeted, “One of them has the most no. of IPL centuries, the highest-ever score in IPL, a strike rate of over 150, the fastest-ever century in IPL history and the most sixes in the competition to his name. I think we know who our pick is! #SaddaPunjab”

Chris Gayle has scored the most number of hundreds in IPL which is six, his score of 175 which he scored in 2013 is still the highest ever score and he also scored the fastest century for which he played only 30 balls.

Sunrisers Hyderabad was also quick to respond and it talked about the IPL achievements of David Warner. Here is what SRH tweeted with a photo of Warner lifting Gayle up, “3 x Orange Caps 1 x IPL Trophy Need a lift, @lionsdenkxip?”

In the year 2015, 2017 and 2018, Warner won the orange cap which is given to that batsman who has scored the maximum runs in that particular season and he also lifted the trophy in the year 2016. Interestingly, David Warner was the skipper of SRH in 2016 when his team won IPL by defeating Royal Challengers Banglore (RCB) in the final and co-incidentally Chris Gayle was a part of RCB at that time.

On the other hand, Gayle has played for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), RCB and KXIP but he has never been a part of an IPL winning team.

Who do you think is more destructive – David Warner or Chris Gayle?

Kevin Pieterson Urges Fans To Remain Indoors With A Tweet In Hindi, PM Modi Reacts

The coronavirus outbreak has turned out to be more harmful than expected and the situation in some countries is quite alarming. The World Health Organization has declared it as a pandemic and asked the governments of various countries to take all steps necessary for controlling this outbreak. Till the time this article was written, more than 2,77,000 people have been found infected while over 11,000 people have lost their lives globally.

The Indian government along with the state governments is making sure that each and every action is taken to control the disease and for this purpose, many steps have been taken, such as foreign flights have been cancelled for a week, many trains have been cancelled and cinema halls, gyms, schools, colleges, malls etc. have also been closed.

One of the biggest cricketing events of the world, Indian Premier League (IPL) has also been postponed due to the coronavirus scare as mass gathering will further deteriorate the situation. Kevin Pieterson, the South African born former England cricketer, was not quite happy when the decision of postponing IPL 2020 was taken and he expressed it on Twitter as well. He was supposed to be a part of IPL 2020 as a commentator and he was in India some time ago for shooting of a documentary Save Rhino as he is pretty active in the field of animal welfare and conservation.

Recently, Kevin Pieterson took to Twitter and made a tweet for Indian fans in Hindi. He wrote that we all are together in this fight against coronavirus, adding that we all should listen to our government and stay in home for some time. He also wrote that this is the time to remain alert and gave his love to his fans too. He concluded his tweet with the name of his Hindi teacher – Shreevats Goswami.

Here is what Kevin Pieterson’s tweet read,

“Namaste india 🙏 hum sab corona virus ko harane mein ek saath hai, hum sab apne apne sarkar ki baat ka nirdes kare aur ghar me kuch Dino ke liye rahe, yeh samay hai hosiyaar rahene ka. App sabhi ko der sara pyaar 💕

My Hindi teacher – @shreevats1”

While Indian Twitterati loved this gesture of Kevin Pieterson, his tweet was also noticed by the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

PM Modi retweeted KP’s tweet with the comment, “Explosive batsmen who’ve seen teams through crises have something to say to us. We too will come together to fight COVID-19.”

The former England cricketer gave a witty response as he thanked PM Modi and said that his leadership is also very explosive. KP tweeted, “Shukriya Modi ji, aapki leadership bhi kaafi bispotak hai”.

This is how Indian Twitterati reacted on the Hindi tweet of Kevin:

Kanika Kapoor’s Coronavirus Positive News Floods Twitter With The Funniest Memes

Coronavirus has scared the whole world and a majority of people are trying to remain safe by following the precautions given by the government and the authorities but there are some individuals who are acting irresponsibly and risking not only their own life but lives of others as well. What makes it more pathetic is the fact that such people are affluent, literate and enjoy the celebrity status in the society.

Yes, you guessed it right! We are talking about none other than Kanika Kapoor, the Bollywood singer who has returned from London on March 15 and has been tested positive for COVID-19 now. However, what has made things uglier is the fact that she has attended few parties after returning from London and those parties were attended by a good number of guests including politicians, bureaucrats, and VVIPs. It is really disheartening to see that when the government is asking everyone to avoid mass gatherings, practice social distancing and staying at home, these high class people are partying and making themselves vulnerable to a disease for which no vaccine is available at the moment.

It is also being said that Kanika Kapoor has hidden her travel details from the airport authorities and come out of the airport without proper screening. Moreover, her father said that she attended three parties after returning from the UK. However, Kanika has denied all the allegations and said that she went under proper screen and didn’t hide anything from the authorities. On the question of attending parties, she said that she didn’t go to any party and she just attended a family get together of 30 people.

The UP government has taken the legal route against the singer as the evidences that they have found are not matching with what Kanika is saying. The Indian Twitterati is pretty angry with what Kanika has done and they have trolled her left and right. Here are some of the selected tweets:

India is presently in the second stage of coronavirus outbreak and the Indian government and state governments are trying their best to stop the country from entering the third stage. However, the fact is that if the country enters the third stage, it will be because of such jerks who are attending parties when staying aloof is the need of the hour.

What is your take on the whole matter?

Shraddha Kapoor Shares A Hilarious Meme Inspired From “Stree” & It Will Make You ROFL

The coronavirus outbreak has emerged to be very lethal in view of the fact that over 2,75,000 people have been infected with the disease while more than 11,000 have lost their lives worldwide. In India only, around 258 persons have been found infected with coronavirus and the disease has taken lives of 4 people in the country.

Representational Image

The situation is extremely grim and the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has appealed to the citizens to fight this enemy together by staying at home and avoiding social distancing. For the same, he has also announced Janta Curfew on Sunday, 22nd March, in which citizens are requested to not to come out of their houses between 7am and 9pm and make loud noise at 5pm. This step is expected to have a profound effect on the spread of the virus and help improving the situation which is keep on worsening with each passing day.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the coronavirus outbreak as pandemic and strong steps will be needed to bring things back to the normal. In an attempt to stop the spreading of COVID-19, multiplexes, malls, schools, colleges, etc. have been closed and any event where mass gathering is possible has been postponed.

Bollywood is indeed adversely affected by coronavirus as shooting of many movies has been halted while release of several flicks has been postponed. B-Town celebrities are also advised to practice quarantine and many celebs are making attempts to spread awareness among public through their social media accounts.

The gorgeous actress Shraddha Kapoor also took to Instagram and made a story in this regard but with a touch of humour. Remember her popular movie “Stree”, the horror comedy which created a storm at the box-office and created new records of success? How can we forget the epic line, “O Stree Kal Aana” and Rajkummar Rao’s brilliant performance that kept us glued to the screen!

Well Shraddha took a reference of the same but made a little change to urge people for staying indoors. She shared a pic which read, “O Stree Bahar Mat Jaana” and below it, she also wrote, “Hehehe All Stree and Purush” which means that it is applicable to every man and woman.

Check out the photo:

Well, this is indeed hilarious and must have left you in splits. What’s more, adding fun to a piece of advice makes it more appealing and we hope that her fans will take it seriously.

On the work front, Shraddha Kapoor’s last release “Baaghi 3” which starred Tiger Shroff in the male lead performed well at the box-office and the actress is certainly enjoying a good phase in terms of her filmy career with many more hits like “Chhichhore”, ‘Street Dancer 3D”, etc.
