Elections in Madhya Pradesh are just a few months away and supporters of the two major parties contesting, the Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) and the Congress, are going all out on the internet. The latest addition is a Baahubali-themed video portraying Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan as the hero of the blockbuster film. The video has the internet in splits.
The video was posted on the YouTube channel Beyondust Digital Studio. It took scenes from the SS Rajamouli film and edited them using images of the BJP and the Congress leaders of the state.
"Shivraj Singh Chouhan, that is me. I will protect the honour, wealth and dignity of the people of Madhya Pradesh. I will not back out even If I have to give my life for it," Chouhan's character says.
Supporters Also Share the Video on Social Media.
In the video, Congress leaders Kamal Nath, Rahul Gandhi, Sonia Gandhi and Digvijaya Singh look shocked as a bare-chested Shivraj Singh Chouhan – with his signature spectacles on – lifts a massive Shiva Linga and carries it on his shoulder.
