Shashi Tharoor Trolls Ahmedabad Restaurant, Gets Roasted For Misspelling The City Instead

Shashi Tharoor keeps stunning people with his priceless treasure of fancy English words. From ‘farrago’ which means hotchpotch to ‘puerile’ which means silly, his knowledge of English vocabulary is far-flung and impressive. But the master of the language himself made a goof up in one of his recent tweets where he tried to troll a newly opened restaurant.

A popular food chain from Ahmedabad called ‘Appitto 9’ opened its outlet in Kochi lately. Tweeting about the ‘hilarious consequence’ of North Indians’ ignorance of South’, Tharoor wrote that the hotel is struggling to find patrons in the city. Reason? The word ‘Appitto’ translates to ‘Did you poop?’ in Malayalam.

But while taking a dig at the restaurant, Tharoor wrote ‘Ahmadabad’ instead of ‘Ahmedabad’! And obviously, the internet spares none!

While some laughed it off, others pinpointed Tharoor’s goof up. Some also reminded him that ‘Gujrat’ is not North but West India.

Though the pun made by Shashi Tharoor in his tweet is hilarious once you find out the translation of ‘Appitto’, the comments will leave you in splits! The Internet is lenient with none, not even the human-dictionary, Tharoor!
