On an average day, Uday Chopra’s Twitter feed can easily be confused with erratic American rapper, Kanye West’s. Oscillating between profundity and lunacy, Chopra’s feed is the trove where weird tweets lie.
Is it illegal to pay someone to kill you?

I just realised Were not related to ourselves. We’re not out our father/mother, son/daughter, uncle/aunt.
We are nothing to ourselves. I want to be related to myself!!!— Uday Chopra (@udaychopra) May 6, 2018
But every once in a while, Chopra emerges from his self-created bubble of existential humour and irreverence to shock the beejeesus out of us with his observations. Yesterday’s dramatic Karnataka poll results had the entire nation hooked, including the Dhoom star, who took to Twitter to talk about it.
I know I usually say rubbish stuff mostly to hide my true feelings but…I’m totally hooked on what’s going on in Karnataka

Uday Chopra cannot have an opinion cos he is flop Bollywood Actor.
But everyone should read words of wisdom of Oscar Nominated Stars Koena Mitra and Vivek Agnihotri.

To give you a summary of the poll results: BJP has emerged as the single largest party but could muster majority votes, while Congress along with JD(S) have come together in a bid to form government. As per usual practises, the party with the most seats should ideally be invited by the governor to try and prove that they can muster majority. But in case of Goa and Manipur, it was the coalition hustled by the BJP and not the largest party that seized the day. And considering the current governor of Karnataka Vajubhai Vala roots lie in the RSS and BJP, this could easily turn out to be another coup for the Modi-led government.
In case you were wondering, Uday Chopra has moved on from the topic already:
