Trolled! A fan of The Hindu posts matrimonial ad in Mumbai Mirror mocking TOI

The matrimonial section in any newspaper is where all the fun is. You can find all sorts of requests, typos, and categories being advertised for marriage. However, a fan of the newspaper The Hindu decided to troll the Times of India by posting a sarcastic ad in TOI’s sister newspaper Mumbai Mirror.

The-Hindu-troll-TOI

The advertisement was posted in the Mumbai edition by a fan of the Hindu in the cosmopolitan section of their matrimonial section, reports IBNlive. Clearly proving the “fan’s” theory, the ad seemingly was placed without the content being read at all. Buzzfeed additionally reports that the CEO of The Hindu Rajiv Lochan said that he “can’t imagine” his team placed the ad in the paper. We’ll just have to sing praises of an anonymous witty person until then. Twitter, in the meanwhile, is cracking up about the ad, and regardless of reports, can’t seem to believe that anybody by the Hindu was behind it:

So The Hindu places an ad. in The Times of India.
Ouch! Need cold water, TOI? pic.twitter.com/fAieYsRkPY
