Move Over 'Chowkidar', Netizens Are Now Adding 'Contractor' to Their Twitter Handles. Here's why

Since Wednesday, #Pray_for_Neasamani and #Neasamani have been the top trends on Twitter and Facebook. By now, you must be aware of how it all started. An enthusiastic fan shared a video of a comedy legend Vadivelu from the Tamil movie, Friends. The scene showed Vadivelu getting hit on the head with a hammer.

Neasamani is a lot of netizens who is suddenly sure of everything about him. In fact, some could not help but wonder if he was a real person or just a character in a movie.

Now, another trend has been spotted. Several fans of Vadivelu, the actor who played Neasamani onscreen, have urged that Twitterati should add the prefix "Contractor" to their handles. This could be a case for the Bharatiya Janata Party where every member of the party, including our very own PM Modi, had added "Chowkidaar" to their Twitter handles during the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.
