The after-effects of India’s epic win over Pakistan are still being felt, as various moments from the match have gone on to become cultural memes. There was Amitabh Bachchan singing the national anthem (and not getting paid for it), Virat Kohli bowing down to Sachin Tendulkar and Shoaib Akhtar losing it in the studio after being mocked.
Now it’s Abhishek Bachchan’s turn to get mocked after he clashed with an anonymous Twitter user with the handle ‘Enginerd’:
It all started when the latter joked about Abhishek’s presence at the Eden Gardens by writing:
Enginerd: Big B paid for Aftab Shivdasani’s ticket so that Abhishek Bachchan isn’t the least-known celebrity in the stadium.
Abhishek Bachchan: haha. Good try! “Least known celebrity”?Isn’t that a bit of a contradiction? Chalo at least you think I’m worthy of a tweet.
Enginerd: This led to another barb from ‘Enginerd’: Sir honestly I think, you are worthy of not just a tweet but a million tweets. But not worthy enough to get my 3hrs & 300 rupees.
Abhishek: Well a million tweets will most probably take you a lot more than 3 hrs and will cost you more than 300rs. U do the maths!!
Enginerd: Sir script can generate a million tweets in secs, but unlike your films I want you to get the real love not the mechanical
Abhishek Bachchan: I would say it makes more sense just to watch a movie. But then again guess we shouldn’t expect much sense or logic from u
Enginerd: You can totally expect sense and logic from me, I’m not a movie named ‘Drona’.
AB: “I’m not a movie named Drona”? Of course not. you are Mainbhiengineer. That makes complete sense and logic! Well done.
Enginerd: Of course ‘Mainbhiengineer’ isn’t my name but Twitter handle, which makes more sense than https://twitter.com/juniorbachchan in ur bio
Big B paid for Aftab Shivdasani's ticket so that Abhishek Bachchan isn't the least known celebrity in the stadium

I hope the positive vibes from Amitabh, Sachin, Gavaskar are enough to negate the presence of Abhishek Bachchan at the ground.#IndvsPak
