Chetan Bhagat asks Shashi Tharoor to praise him with 'big words', latter's wordy response sparks meme fest

Shashi Tharoor had appreciated author Chetan Bhagat's article which was on the dire need of the youth to focus on the country's economic state rather than decoding the tinseltown's controversies.

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor is very well known in the country for his rather wide vocabulary. Very often, he uses words that most of us have not even heard of yet they manage to make the headline whenever they come to our notice.

This time it was no different, Tharoor was at his very best while responding to a request of the author Chetan Bhagat. Today morning, Tharoor had posted the link of an article written by the '3 Mistakes of my life' author about how the youth of the country need to concentrate more on the abysmal GDP rates rather than decoding the endless Bollywood conspiracies and controversies. 

Needless to say, Bhagat was extremely elated to have received accolades him. Along with thanking him, he made a small request to him as well. "Just one request, sir, next time can you use some big words to praise me, like ones that only you can do? Superb is nice but a big one would really make my day," he said in the tweet. 

The Thiruvananthapuram MP happily obliged and took out the big guns to respond to his request. Here it goes. 

Now, this is not just a random collection of words like it was in the famous song from the movie 'Amar Akbar Anthony' called 'My Name is Anthony Gonsalves.' The words used in Tharoor's tweet actually do have meaning. 'Sesquipedalian' means a word being polysyllabic, 'Rodomontade' is boastful, 'convolutions' means complex, ostentation means being pretentious, 'limpid' is clear and 'perspicacity' is to be shrewd.

For obvious reasons, under his tweet, it was memes galore. Netizens posted memes and what not to not only appreciate his verbosity but to also know the meaning of the words as well as the pronunciation. 

Surely, that was what Bhagat must have had in mind when he wanted the big words to shower his praises with. This will be something to cherish for time to come.
