Earlier today, actress-turned-politician Smriti Irani initiated a fun, musical thread on Twitter wherein she asked people to do a Twitter Antakshari. It was basically her way to ease out the coronavirus scare on the internet and entertain people while they stay under self-quarantine. Speaking of which, Smriti tweeted, "We are a 130 crore family so tag karna mushkil hai ki next kaun gaana uthayega isiliye sing / tweet a song coz ye apni marzi wala #TwitterAntakshari hai .."

While several people across India participated in this virtual singing session by suggesting song names and tagging friends, Karan Johar too decided to have some fun by joining the Twitter Antakshari. But amusingly, his choice of song was so not in sync with the critical time that we are living in. By now we are sure you must have guessed 2-3 Bollywood songs that KJo might have suggested among the ones that are a strict no-no for living in the time of coronavirus. Well, he opted for Lag Jaa Gale Ke Phir Yeh Hassin Raat Ho Na Ho...and Smriti, didn't think twice before calling him out for picking the 'wrong song' in the time of coronavirus considering social-distancing is the need of the hour.

KJo wrote, "Helloji! Antakshari is my favourite timepass activity! To main Zaroor contribute karna chahoonga...with my favourite song... Lag ja gale ...ke phir ye haseen raat ho na ho...Shayad phir is janam mein mulakat ho na ho......ab aapki bari!!!!" To which, Smriti replied, "Lag jaa gale is the wrong song during #corona" Karan Johar couldn't help but laugh at his own song selection after Smriti replied. Here, check out their fun Twitter banter below..
