One of India’s bestselling authors and the favourite writer of every non-reader, Chetan Bhagat loves to keep his social media feed interesting. To keep his 12.3 million followers engaged on Twitter, he often runs contests like #GuessTheTitle of his upcoming book. He often talks about social issues, politics, his columns and the events he attends. But what truly gets him all the attention are his shockingly weird tweets. Sometimes, the writer ends up tweeting such bizarre statements that trollers can’t help themselves but speak up. Not just the trollers and Mr Bhagat’s readers but brilliant minds like Twinkle Khanna also get affected by his words on Twitter, when dragged into a sarcastic conversation, of course.
Here’s a look at some of the hilarious tweets by the writer that make no sense whatsoever. I bet it’ll make your day!
1. This basically looks like a writer’s explanation for why all his average teenage romance novels are on big screen now instead of a mastermind’s autobiography
Kehna kya chahte ho?
Seedhey se kaho…#bhakt

2. Can you imagine someone, whose novels are read as widely as his, blamed India-Pak partition when Pakistan lost a cricket match against the Men in Blue by six wickets? Why? Like why?
@chetan_bhagat Whenever I get writer’s block, I remind myself that someone with that IQ managed to become a bestseller. Keeps me going.

.@chetan_bhagat If our forefathers hadn’t asked for partition we would’ve had to live in a country with you. Which is unacceptable. Thanks.

3. Now this one’s about a serious historical topic but when a published writer makes a grammatical error, people notice
Did saw? Did? Saw? My kid laughed out loud.

Did – Saw !! Common man !! Refer to Wren and Martin.
Rolf ! Best selling Novelist !! LMAO.— রৌnak घोষ (@MisterJo_Gho) October 6, 2017
Yes I apologise for the phone autocorrect typo. Though I think everyone did get the point. Oh, btw it is Come On! Not Common! https://t.co/3aWSIAzMsi

Now, although he had choice of pointing out the mistake in a good polite way..god knows why he chose the harsh way .maybe just to look cool

4. After the launch of One Indian Girl, the writer wanted to see his book set in a nice backdrop, so he tweeted about it promising a retweet in exchange but here’s what happened.
#OneIndianGirl in Mykonos, Greece. Send me pics of the book in a beautiful backdrop. Will RT best ones. Let’s see your phone camera skills! pic.twitter.com/nGAF9QiFd0

And here’s how he responded and got trolled AGAIN.
Many fools threw bricks at Manmohan Singh but he remained calm & used those to build India into a great country. #MMSBestPM pic.twitter.com/dSjqrHEwYK

5. Another gem from the archives is Mr Bhagat’s conversation with Piers Morgan when Morgan commented on India for celebrating a bronze and a silver medal.
Country with 1.2 billion people wildly celebrates 2 losing medals. How embarrassing is that? https://t.co/FYSBM7ErAf
— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) August 24, 2016
We honor achievers Peirs. Top 3 in the world,despite 3rd world sports facilities isn’t loser.It is freaking amazing! https://t.co/pbFuP0Hmky
— Chetan Bhagat (@chetan_bhagat) August 24, 2016
Noted, Chatan. https://t.co/wYknYWSkQZ
— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) August 24, 2016
It’s Chetan. And sorry about the trolling. I get my fair share. Celebration or outrage, we tend to overdo.Clearly 🙂 https://t.co/Wkc6UWUIND
— Chetan Bhagat (@chetan_bhagat) August 24, 2016
I know how to spell your name.
It was a little joke because you didn’t know how to spell mine…. https://t.co/s7sKUecDyW— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) August 24, 2016
6. And now comes Mr Bhagat’s sarcastic banter with Mrs Funny Bones and boy, Twinkle Khanna sure is a batsman on the funny-field… Ouch!
I do!He gets to judge NachBaliye and i get to judge if that gross thing on my floor is dog puke or poop #SuchIsLife https://t.co/glVOtvREii
— Twinkle Khanna (@mrsfunnybones) April 27, 2015

— Chetan Bhagat (@chetan_bhagat) April 27, 2015
it’s a short life-if lucky enough 2 get opportunities to do diverse things then one should @chetan_bhagat write a bestseller abt it too 🙂
— Twinkle Khanna (@mrsfunnybones) April 27, 2015

— Chetan Bhagat (@chetan_bhagat) April 27, 2015
