If your Facebook friend list includes even one person who can remotely claim Indian lineage, you probably know by now that India has successfully (first country to get it right the first time) put its Mars mission Mangalayan in orbit. What you may not know is that all the pictures Mangalayan has so far taken of the surface of Mars show Rajnikanth resting with a drink in his hand 🙂

India’s arch nemesis Pakistan has immediately claimed that this is all a propaganda from India. They claim that India photoshopped all the pictures purportedly taken by Mangalayan. The head of space programme in Pakistan submitted as evidence the argument that everybody knows Rajnikanth never rests 🙂

Meanwhile, India has been able to do this on a shoestring investment budget of $74M and one Rajnikanth. Which is of course, a total waste of the $74M 🙂

[If you truly have no Facebook friend with some remote lineage to India, let me explain that Rajnikanth has had many knockoffs elsewhere in the world – e.g. Chuck Norris in USA 🙂 ]
