Later, DD News shared a video clip of Shraddha where she talked about her experience meeting the PM. She said, “Meeting the Prime Minister of our country… how do you put it quickly in words. I am still in a few days. He met me, and we shook hands as I entered the room, he said, ‘Aiyyo!’. Aiyyo is a prefix to my social media handle, it’s called Aiyyo Shraddha and the fact that he remembered it and he remembered my face and Aiyyo, and he said Aiyyo! In fact, if the photographers have clicked that picture, it’s a picture of him going Aiyyo and me going [makes expressions of surprise] because I did not expect him to say that. It was a very wonderful warm chat. He told us how proud he was about how the South Indian film industry has showcased the beauty of our country, the richness of our country.”

Following her tweet, while many netizens congratulated her, the so-called liberals rushed to cancel the comedian for meeting the PM. Congress worker Armaan said, “Wow, so now you will start propaganda and justify 40% commissions?”

Human Rights Guy said, “You seem proud!!! Ask him how it felt to spend 8000 crores on buying his flights in the middle of a pandemic when 5 -8 million Indians died.” Interestingly, both the statements by the Twitter user were propaganda and have been busted several times.

Twitter user Nita Kumar said, “I used to watch her videos for a while when she tried to highlight issues, till I sensed that she was careful to avoid topics uncomfortable for Modi & co. Stopped watching her immediately. Today my stand is validated.”
