'He got bail faster than Dhoni's stumping': Twitter still not over Vijay Mallya getting bail in 3 hours flat

Truly the King of Good Times, you all.

There was a huge uproar when the Indian liquor baron Vijay Mallya got arrested on Tuesday by Scotland Yard, in London. While the media flashed it as breaking news, Indian bankers rejoiced at it. Bankers among the 17 consortium of lenders sighed a relief hearing about his much-awaited trial. Mallya, who fled to the UK avoiding his arrest last year, was arrested on an extradition warrant by India.

The Indian government has time and again tried to get hold of “The King of Good Times”. However, after his hurried departure from India, the government has failed to book him. In January 2017, CBI court issued a non-bailable warrant against Vijay and his now defunct company Kingfisher for loan defaulting.

According to the reports, the 61-year-old business tycoon still owes the hefty amount of Rs 9,000 crore to multiple banks and the Service Tax Department of India. He was presented before the Westminster Magistrates’ Court and was granted bail within three hours of his arrest. This obviously caused a stir with the Indian media but sure Twitter knows how to make the most of the situation.

As Twitter exploded with funny reactions to the whole fiasco, take a look at the best tweets:

Oh! That timing

 LOL!

 It truly is.

Sadly!

This one is the best.
