Coronavirus Mumbai Police: "Mask Hai Na", says Mumbai Police using a clip from SRK's Main Hoon Na.
Since the time the pandemic named COVID-19 entered India, many ‘memers’ came out to create more memes daily & spread a little laughter among people of the country in these tough times that the nation faces currently. Also, the virus is deadlier than what it seems as it has already taken many lives all around the world & the number of cases also seem to increase each passing day in most parts of the world. However, sometimes it is ok to sit back & enjoy a meme a day, it just gives you a reason to smile & laugh a bit.
The recent meme in the form of a clip from Shahrukh Khan's blockbuster film 'Main Hoon Naa' went viral as Mumbai Police was in top form again to share a bit of laughter & at the same time also spread the awareness of the life-threatening disease. Known for their wittiest tweets that always have a message behind it for the people, this time too the social media team of the Mumbai Police came out with something quite hilarious & quirky to spread the word about the pandemic to all to encourage them to keep wearing the masks & to help prevent the virus contraction.
The Twitter handle of the official Mumbai Police shared the post which is a 13-second clip from the 2004 film that shows the actor doing a stunt inspired from 'Matrix' arching back to save himself & avoiding to get being spat on by Satish Shah. The tweet read, “@iamsrk wouldn’t need to do such stunts any longer — Mask Hai Na!”
The aim of showing the clip from the movie is to tell people that they can save themselves from getting infected by the virus by choosing to wear masks without the need to do any stunts just like SRK attempts in the clip.
Since the time the clip got shared on Twitter, it went viral & garnered a lot of praises from many users. A user said, "@MumbaiPolice bhi puri filmy hai." Another user said, "Hahahahhaha! Even at this hour @MumbaiPolice hasn't failed to tickle my funny bone!” The post has already received more than 400 retweets & 1,000 plus likes.
Another tweet by Mumbai Police also recapitulated on the need to use hand sanitizers, masks & on the need to stay home.
