What is the most drastic step you have taken after watching a film that made you groan? You probably walked out of the theatre mid way, or wrote a terrible review on social media. Well, Pune-based Vishal Surywanshi has gone one step ahead and taken his grievance to the country’s External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj through Twitter, albeit in jest.

This Pune guy simply couldn’t go through the latest Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Jab Harry Met Sejal, and decided to tweet to Swaraj from the theatre itself, asking to be rescued from the “disaster” that was the film.

Needless to say, the tweet had the Internet in splits and was shared over 1,500 times and liked over 2,400 times. Swaraj is known for promptly reaching out to those in distress, and has been recently praised by a Pakistani woman who said that she would have liked to have Swaraj as her country’s prime minister.

However, Swaraj has also occasionally been subjected to online pranksters who have written to her about imaginary problems or non-issues.

A case in point is one Karan Saini who tweeted to Swaraj in June, asking her to provide him with food supplies because he was ‘stuck on Mars’. Earlier, another Twitter user made an odd request to Swaraj, seeking her help in fixing his damaged refrigerator. Swaraj had cheekily responded to that:

This time too, Twitter users are egging Swaraj on to write a clever response to the Pune-based Twitter user’s hilarious request.
