What is the craziest thing you have done for your idol? Fought the crowd for an autograph? Snuck into the backstage to get a sneak peek and probably got kicked out by the security?
You would be surprised to know that there are people who would grin at that and say, ‘Hold my beer’.
Crazy Modi fans aka ‘Bhakts’ are nothing new, and neither are they uncommon. The latest bhakt who has stolen the spotlight is Basavraj, a primary school teacher in Raichur, Karnataka.
This Modi fan got Modi’s face tattooed all over his back over a 15-hour-long sitting.
