Chetan Bhagat Committed A Word Crime And The Grammar Nazis Roasted Him Left, Right And Centre!

Chetan Bhagat. Arey, naam toh suna hoga? He’s such a famous Indian writer and a reality show judge and a celebrity who’s a total troll-favourite.

Whatever Chetan Bhagat does, and he does a lot of things, people are always ready to take his case. But, this time around, the 3 Mistakes of My Life writer made a mistake Tweeple are not forgiving him for.

Recently, Washington Post worded an article with the headline: Is India neglecting the Taj Mahal because it was built by Muslims? Mr. Bhagat who is quite hands-on with social media, wanted to do a vox pop in form of Twitter poll with his followers.

Did you ever, as an Indian, saw the Taj as a 'Muslim' monument (as @washingtonpost is saying it's being neglected because it is Muslim)

Netizens instantly picked up the grammatical error and roasted the author.

1. Is it suitable?

"Did you ever saw..", does not an author behoove.

2. Age issue?

For a guy who claims to be a writer in English, that's some really bad grammar!

Chetan apologised by trolling a troll who trolled him.

Yes I apologise for the phone autocorrect typo. Though I think everyone did get the point. Oh, btw it is Come On! Not Common! https://t.co/3aWSIAzMsi

But, looks like, people of the web are still not buying it.

1. Poll ka jawab poll se!

2. This one didn’t believe Chetan’s excuse.

3. Nor did this one!

I don't think it was an autocorrect issue. But you bypassed it like a champion.

4. Nor him!

Cliched excuse bruh!

If you ask us, we would say that Chetan basically made 3 mistakes in the process. One, of course, the grammatical error. Two, he tried to troll a troll while doling out an apology. Not cool! And, three, he tried to conduct that poll, in the first place!
