The Art of Leaving: The Internet’s take on Vijay Mallya flying out

Vijay Mallya left the country on March 2.

mallya leaving 759

Industrialist Vijay Mallya, the man who people can’t stop talking about, owes nearly Rs 9,000 crore to 17 public sector banks. The banks filed a petition to stop Mallya from leaving the country but the ‘King of Good Times’, as he is called, had already left the country. In fact, he had flown out on March 2.

Though the country found out about it several days later, combined with the other hot topic in news — Sri Sri Ravi Shankar’s World Culture Festival — the Internet has taken to exercising its ‘birthright’ to produce a slew of memes to express its opinion on both issues. Needless to say, the outcome was hilarious and spot on.

Hilarious! We stop a Greenpeace activist leaving the country, by confiscating her passport, but couldn’t stop Vijay Mallya?😆😆 @narendramodi

Would be nice if Lalit Modi & Vijay Mallya hang out together in London.
