I always think of the song from Amar Prem, चिंगारी कोई भड़के when it comes to Twitter trends and memes of any sort. It doesn’t take much to spark off a trend; in fact it takes nothing to trigger the eager meme-miesters just waiting for the next one. In this case it is an old Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan song in a new avatar where Atif Aslam has sung it for the movie Batti Gul Meter Chalu that started things off.
The distinctive voice of Atif Aslam gives voice to the old classic in the movie with the difficult-to-remember-name. this is what gave rise to the Sochta hun ki wo kitne masoom the / Kya se kya ho gaye dekhte dekhte.

It was always difficult for me to understand why Kajol couldn’t just get on the train via the rear entrance of that same bogie instead of endangering herself by running alongside the train. But, clearly that is not relevant here. What’s relevant is that times have changed!
I thought this was completely silly and utterly hilarious! But rather than the Rock to Dwayne Johnson it should be - Dwayne Johnson to the Rock and then back again!
Manushi Chillar has clearly come a long way from the geeky medical student to Miss India to Miss World!
Imran Khan used to be one of the hottest cricket players in the world. Today he is the PM of Pakistan!
This has long been my lament and one of the great unsolved mysteries of the world: how does this happen to earphones: we just put them away and they get tangled all on their own!
This is a clever reference to the white wash that Sanju was. It was less biopic and more PR exercise meant to convince the public that nothing terrible that Sanjay Dutt ever did was ever his fault. Certainly a case of "Kya se kya ho gaye dekhte dekhte"!
