When entire India was mourning over India’s defeat at the hands of Australia in the Cricket World Cup semi-final match, there was one person who was ‘happy’ about it and celebrating it. He is none other than veteran Bollywood filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma.
The controversial filmmaker rolled out hate tweets one after another, 20 minutes after Team India lost the match. On a tweeting spree, RGV said that he hated cricket and that he’s really happy that the Men in Blue lost out to the Aussies.

RGV even took a dig at Anushka Sharma’s boyfriend and Team India’s Vice Captain Virat Kohli, who managed to score just one run in the decisive match.
I personally like Anushka Sharma’s performance much much More than the performance of whoever and whatever her boyfriend is?

As expected, this series of distasteful tweets attracted people’s wrath and within no time and fans and followers of cricket began trolling Ram Gopal Varma. And to everybody’s happy surprise, one of them was former Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir and National Conference leader Omar Abdullah.
No wonder your movies are such block buster hits all the time 🙂 http://t.co/r8WUm0amwQ

Mr Abdullah’s witty reaction to RGV’s tweets was surely something to smile about amidst the sadness. There were some other fans too, who responded to RGV’s tweets.
