New Delhi: A tweet from a parody account impersonating popular YouTuber Dhruv Rathee has created a stir online. The parody account, named Dhruv Rathee (Parody) posted a congratulatory message to Muslims for celebrating Eid peacefully.
The tweet, posted on the evening of June 18, read: “200 Million Muslim celebrated Eid Yesterday. Distributed meat to the poor and needy. Met their relatives. Had some amazing food. Gave Eidi to children and made them happy. None of them got drunk and went to other’s place of worship to dance and provoke. WHAT AN AMAZING COMMUNITY “
It is clearly stated in X (formerly Twitter) itself that it is a parody account and not the official account of Dhruv Rathee. However, the tweet went viral as if it was from Dhruv Rathee’s official account. The original English tweet has since been translated into various languages, including Kannada, and posters are being widely shared on social media.
This is not the first time tweets from parody accounts have caused confusion. In the past, parody accounts of prominent figures like Prime Minister Narendra Modi and fraudster Lalit Modi have also created similar chaos.
Many celebrities have official X accounts (formerly Twitter) as well as parody accounts. The statements from these parody accounts, which often share sarcastic, satirical, funny, and critical content, should not be mistaken as official.
