Kal Penn is a popular American actor of Indian origin, who was also a part of the Obama Administration. After Donald Trump‘s win, he has been pretty vocal about his disappointment with the current government and has often expressed how increasingly racist USA has now become.
A few hours ago, he tweeted a burn to the American Vice President Mike Pence. Pence is known to be a staunch opponent of LGBTQ civil rights and made a brilliant Kal Ho Naa Ho reference –
Mike Pence reminds me of Kantaben from “Kal Ho Na Ho”

Of course, Indians (and people who are familiar with the movie) LOVED it!

The director of the film, Nikhil Advani, had the best reply though –
