NEW DELHI: Hugs may be silent, yet they speak volumes, said positivity speaker Carol CC Miller. On Friday, Rahul Gandhi ’s hugging of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Parliament spoke louder than his words.Social media was agog with jokes and memes on the hug as well as the wink that followed the act. Around 6.30pm, hashtags Rahul Gandhi and RahulHugsModi were also trending on twitter.The wink drew comparisons with budding actor Priya Prakash Warrier’s twinkle, arguably the most famous wink in India’s social history.One meme asked the viewer to compare the two winks. “Which one is better?,” it asked.The occasion also drew comparison with Sunjay Dutt’s film, Munnabhai MBBS, where the protagonist hugs strangers and calls it, jaadu ki jhappi. In fact, the expression was among the frequently-used hashtags on Friday.
