In a cheeky post, PIB shared a popular meme from the Bollywood film Golmaal, with the line, 'Yeh koi tarika hai bheek maangne ka?' (Is this how you beg for money?) The post quickly went viral, leaving netizens in splits.

But let's be honest, no one was buying that story. One X user joked, 'Haters will say it's been hacked!' Another joined in by sharing a meme from Phir Hera Pheri, writing, 'Only she can arrange funds now!', pointing at the iconic character Baburao. Soon, the comments were flooded with jokes and memes.
