#NewPassword – All the Best Memes from the Twitter Trend

Brands are plugging their products. People are declaring their political and ideological thoughts. IPL cricket franchises are getting in on the act as well. When #NewPassword started to trend on Twitter, everyone seemed to have something to say and the new password memes were everywhere.

Show of strength

The Kings XI Punjab handle tweeted this. Some fans of course had divergent views.

Old lament

Fans of M S Dhoni still feel that there can be no replacement for him.

The Police got in on the act

This handle reminds us about the importance of verifying before forwarding.

So did the railways

They advertised their UTS mobile app which saves people the time and hassle of standing in life for ticket bookings.

Promoting Darbar

The new Rajinikanth film is out in theatres now, Reliance Entertainment reminded us.

Reminder from HDFC

They reminded us to not share passwords and linked to more ways to stay safe while making online transactions.

Biryani brand

We shouldn’t share our passwords we are always told. This brand tells us that biryani is also not to be shared.

Maruti

The car company advertised their factory-fitted CNG cars as well as their branded services stations.

Pen ad

Cello says their pen lasts long, very long, ting tong.

When you want your gadgets fast!

Croma advertised their three hour delivery service.

Proline

People were encouraged to get off electronics and go play outside --- presumably wearing Proline gear.

Some

Just decided to get over heartbreak and get on with their lives

On the strength of phone features

I couldn’t make anything of this, but the comments below indicated that this tweet discussed the relative merits of different smart phones and their features.

Social media filters

Filters can be much more effective than makeup in making us look good, feels this commentator.

Political comment

This tweet refers to the fact that India currently has a weak, disorganised and ineffectual opposition. As it states, satirists and standup comics are doing a far better job of speaking truth to power these days.

This reminder

There was a lot of news about absconder Vijay Mallya being brought back to face justice in India. We all seem to have forgotten about this; he is still in London.

Mood of the nation

Many of the tweeple shared sentiments similar to this: united we stand, divided we fall via the #NewPassword hashtag.
