Rumour (and the Internet) has it…

Here’s one thing that you must know about the bee, it talks too much but says nothing, we’d like to compare it with Donald Trump, but then the bee might get way too offended with that comparison. Blame it on the absence of filters on the Internet; there’s something that’s been keeping the bee busy, it’s a Reliance Jio sim form and that too, by Priyanka Chopra. Well, the photograph of the Reliance Jio sim form, filled by Priyanka Chopra, has gone viral on the social media. The form has the details of the superstar but the signature looks different, questioning the credibility of the viral post.
Although the subscription forms for any sim-card are supposed to be confidential but a picture of the actress’ form to avail the offer first started doing the rounds on messaging application WhatsApp. Seems like the bee might have to change its phone number to stop getting such messages! Reliance Jio, what say?
Face the book
“Yuun mere khat ka jawab aaya, lifafe mein ik gulab aaya...” sings the bee, pointing at Pakistan’s first Sikh police officer, Gulab Singh’s video that has gone viral on the Internet. Singh, in his Facebook post, levelled serious charges of corruption on PSGPC chief Tara Singh and a few officials of ETPB for collecting funds to the tune of hundreds and thousands of dollars from USA and Canada on the pretext of carrying out Sewa (voluntary service) in Gurdwara Nankana Sahib and Gurdwara Dera Sahib.
In the video, he is seen reading out an apology message for his post. Gulab says that he had posted an emotional appeal on Facebook wherein he had used a few words, which he should not have actually used. So, if the grass is greener on the other side of the fence, are the roses redder too?
Tweet trail
Modi’s back on the viral wagon and a picture of his on the sidelines of the ongoing G20 Summit, with him walking behind Obama has taken the Internet by storm. As soon as the picture surfaced on social media, it started making rounds on Twitter with some hilarious captions.
Tube tales
The youngest contestant on the show, 10-year-old JT Church, got the opportunity to showcase a dance of his that went viral on the Internet with his all-star partner, Robert Roldan. The piece featured Robert and J.T on the opposite sides of a mirror, with J.T. copying his partner’s moves, then crossing over and intertwining in a beautiful display of acrobatics. After the first performance, the mirror dance got over 700 thousand views on SYTYCD’s YouTube channel, and the show boasts that the routine has been viewed over 55 million times. Not that the bee’s gotten over Nescafe Basement’s absolutely mesmerising version of Guns N’ Roses’ O Sweet Child O’ Mine, here’s Baiju Dharmajan and Girish Pradhan singing the classic. They set the Internet aflame with their version of the Guns N’ Roses classic Sweet Child O’ Mine.
Beesides, a rare footage of unseen short film of SRK has gone viral on the Internet. Titled Mahan Karz, the 17-minute long video has SRK playing the role of a treasurer’s son who wants to work in the Maharaja’s castle. Now, that’s coming in too late... bee wonders if you noticed SRK in another telefilm, in which Annie gives it those ones, yet?
