Chetan Bhagat gets 'exposed' and offers 'caring advice'—but it's his grammar that's got people trolling him

Chetan Bhagat is a name familiar to many Indians, known for his bestselling novels like Two States and Five Point Someone, which have also been adapted into successful films. However, he’s recently come under fire after a social media outburst aimed at an X user raised eyebrows about his grammar skills, leading some to question his expertise despite his literary fame.

While Chetan Bhagat is a well-known author, his writing isn't everyone's cup of tea—often appealing to a specific audience.?

Recently, an X (formerly Twitter) user named Gabbar, who clearly isn't a fan of Bhagat's writing, took a jab at the author, dismissing his work as "bus-stand literature" and accusing him of being desperate.

He claimed that Bhagat's career trajectory was a desperate scramble and that "his ideas & articulation come from the same Bus stand he built his career from. So now he is a motivation guru. It's a cry for help."

Check out his tweet below:

Bhagat fired back, dismissing Gabbar as irrelevant and sarcastically acknowledging the critique with, "Rule of life. only those beneath you will hate on you. this bro replies to every tweet of mine to get attention so here you go bro."

Bhagat accepted the claim that he was exposed, "You got me. Gosh, so accurate. I am exposed! Here's your attention for the day to feed your damaged self-esteem. Now go get a life."

Gabbar's retort was simply, "Nothing hurts like truth."

But Bhagat's next response is what's really gone viral. Take a look:

He even threw in some unsolicited advice: "Get ur mental health checked. Am v serious. This is a caring advice."

How did people react?

The internet thrives on drama, and this latest exchange between Chetan Bhagat and Gabbar has been nothing short of popcorn-worthy.?

In the comments, people are having a field day, poking fun at Bhagat's grammar blunders.

Another commenter wrote, "@GabbbarSingh be like - Thanks for the caring advice, Chetan! I will get my mental health checked right after you get your writing checked."

Gabbar's response to Chetan's latest post??"Humble suggestion. May be tweet 5 more tweets to prove to everyone you are not triggered. That will do it."

Um, Bhagat's turn now I guess? Let's wait and watch.
