 "Pirate Akhilesh: UP CM says he 'downloaded' PK, gets ridiculed on Twitter")
It was yesterday that we learnt that Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav after watching Aamir Khan-starrer PK had made the film tax free in Uttar Pradesh. However, a report in the Times of India quoting him saying he ‘downloaded’ the film to watch it has made him the butt of all jokes on Twitter. [caption id=“attachment_2026167” align=“alignleft” width=“380”]  Akhilesh Yadav. PTI[/caption] The report quotes him as saying, “People had been telling me for many days to watch PK. I downloaded it a few days ago, but only found the time to watch it last night. I liked it immediately and decided to make it ’tax-free’ so that more people can watch it.” A photograph in this newspaper was also doing the rounds on Twitter. Here’s what people on Twitter had to say about Uttar Pradesh chief minister downloading the film:
