With the Lok Sabha elections a few days away, social media is abuzz with theories, memes and videos related to them. To encourage voting, the Election Commission of India has shared a meme featuring stills from Season 2 of the web series The Family Man.
Th meme shows Manoj Bajpayee declining a request to a lunch. Its caption reads, “#ElectionMeme: ठहरो जरा!! आज करेंगे मतदान, कल करेंगे जलपान
#IVote4Sure #ChunavKaParv #DeshKaGarv #Elections2024 #Memes,” which translates to “wait a minute!! Today we will vote, tomorrow we will have refreshments”.
That’s not all. Another caption of the meme has social media in stitches, “When your girlfriend asks you for a lunch date on Election Day.” And those who got the reference to Bajpayee’s stills from Family Man know what is up.
The post, which has got over 11.6k views on X, has drawn many reactions. One user wrote, “Everyone graduated from Meme university.”
Another commented, “On election day, how can we vote? Our college conducted final year exams for us, making it impossible to vote. @ECISVEEP @highereduminmp.” A third user chimed in, “ECI is in a chill mood.”
