New Delhi: Saif Ali Khan’s comment, about there being no concept of Indian before the British came in, has become the subject of a meme fest on social media.

Speaking about his new film “Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior” in a recent interview, Saif had said: “I don’t think there was a concept of India till perhaps the British gave it one.”




Soon after the interview #ThereWasNoConceptOf trended on Twitter, and a user @Atheist_Krishna asked people to respond to #ThereWasNoConceptOf with humour. The post read: “#ThereWasNoConceptOf… tweet something funny with this hashtag.”

His tweet went viral, thus leading to hilarious jokes, memes and some really wholesome sarcasm on Twitter.

A user took the liberty to create a funny meme by using a comment of Ananya Panday where, while speaking about her struggle as a star kid, she mentioned how her father, actor Chunky Pandey, was never invited to Karan Johar’s chat show, “Koffee With Karan”.




The tweeple commented: “#ThereWasNoConceptOf struggle in Bollywood before Ananya Pandey.”

Another user posted the photo of MS Dhoni and tweeted: “#ThereWasNoConceptOf helicopter shot before MSD….”

“#ThereWasNoConceptOf porn before Mia Khalifa” read one post.

A Tweeple remarked: “#ThereWasNoConceptOf aloo se sona banane wali machine before Rahul Gandhi said he will make it.”
