Kamal Nath’s Holi photos are desi users latest fodder for memes.

Like many other leaders, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Kamal Nath shared three photos of himself on the occasion of Holi. The chief minister was wearing a crisp white kurta, that was largely clean, despite a number of colours being smeared on his face. The symmetrical lines of colour on his face was mocked on Twitter, with many saying it was the funniest picture they had seen on Holi.

Here’s the politician’s tweet that created a buzz online.

It spawned a number of jokes and even became the subject of memes. While some compared it to putting make-up after seeing multiple YouTube videos, others claimed it looked like someone had been trying various shades of lipstick at a cosmetic store. Many also started drawing parallels of the picture with other rainbow coloured items, ranging from colourful candies to the signal of a bad television connection.

Here are some of the memes:
