Twitter is the best place for getting instant reactions for everything good or bad. Be it celebrities or commoners, reactions through tweet have either created controversies or have gone viral on the social media.
In a recent twitter post by Lyricist Javed Akhtar, he was all praises for a Tamil movie he recently watched but mistakenly misspelt the name of the movie.
He wrote “Watched a Tamil film sarvam thalamus Maryam“ directed by ace cameraman Rajiv Menon. Well made well performed, very sensitive. It is an unusual story about music and social justice. Achhi picture Hai”.

But soon after this post, Tamil actor Siddharth mocked back the writer by replying to his post. The actor wrote “Javed Tamilus Killingam” achha naam hai.

It seems that the actor was quite offended with Javed Akhtar’s quote but the writer is no less, he responded immediately with an apology reply to the actor.
Akhtar wrote “Dear Siddharth I totally understand your feelings. This is how I feel when someone murders Hindi or Urdu. My unconditional apologies. I have punished myself by writing that title again and again”.

Although he corrected his mistake in his next tweet and also replied to the Tamil actor’s reply by mentioning the correct name of the film.
This was not the end, as the Tamil Actor responded in a firm way to the writer by thanking him for being so sporting.
He wrote “Hahahaha! Epic! Thank you, Javed Saab. Very sporting of you sir. Much love.
