New Delhi: People were excited after the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) declared its intention to build a permanent space station for the country. However, Mahindra Group chairman Anand Mahindra’s tweet is what stole the thunder from the ISRO’s announcement.
“We’ll finally have our own space movies. 1st up: A ‘Bobby’ remake. ‘Hum Tum, ek space station me bund ho..’^_^” Mahindra tweeted.
The Twitterati kept the hilarious ball rolling with their own filmy ideas.
User Intolerant Liberal tweeted: “. . aur Anand aa jaaye.”
“Agar chaabi kho gai space main to phir to hamesha ke liye space station main hi rehna hoga Anand Sir,” tweeted user Anoop Vajpai.
“…aur rocket kho jaaye?” tweeted another user.
Some users flirted with the idea of a space-themed “Sholay” remake and others with TV serials in the space station.
It can be recalled that ISRO chairman Dr K Sivan, at a press conference for the launch of India’s ambitious Chandrayaan 2 project to the moon said that their ambition was to have a separate space station. He added that they would launch a small module of 20 tonnes for microgravity experiments.
