Now, the Karnataka elections has all of us glued to news channels but it's Chopra who is doing the real digging. On the evening of 15 May, he claimed to have found dirt on BJP and tweeted about it:
I just googled the governor of Karnataka https://t.co/5vUFe5Tttq BJP guy and RSS hmmm I guess we all know what’s gonna happen

In his tweet, he indicated that the Karnataka Governor Vajubhai Vala is affiliated to the BJP and the RSS, therefore implying that his ties to the party have led it to form government in the state. Little did Chopra know that supporters of the political party in question would come for him and his acting career. From calling him the Rahul Gandhi of Bollywood to belittling his career, the trolls just didn't stop.

However, Uday didn't hold back in his responses to the trolls and also gave them a lesson or two on Indian politic
As per the Indian Law the party which gets maximum seats is invited first to claim for making government... I believe rather then comments you need to read and learn first #KarnatakaElections2018

Ha! So many trolls on my timeline suddenly. I agree I am no one of consequence but I am still an Indian and I care deeply about my country — Uday Chopra (@udaychopra) May 15, 2018
He then, in a Shashi Tharoor-esque tweet, signed off from the site:
I think the fleestalkens are definitely becoming fluggeristic due to my stelnaalens, but what can one do. It’s a Tuesday!

Although the reason for this Twitter behaviour is unclear, it's not the first time this has happened. Chopra really is unrestrained on Twitter. His tweets, highly philosophical, demand multiple readings:
Girls like bad guys who are secretly good. Guys like good girls who are secretly bad.#TruthOfLife — Uday Chopra (@udaychopra) May 15, 2018
That explains Pyaar Impossible.
Is it illegal to pay someone to kill you?

We guess?
Does anyone believe in the existence of a purely theoretical universe — Uday Chopra (@udaychopra) May 8, 2018
Not if it is theoretical.
My brain is broken

Same Uday, same.
