Self-proclaimed ‘IITian Baba’ Abhay Singh apologised after he was brutally trolled as India defeated Pakistan in the Champions Trophy by six wickets in Dubai on February 23. The reason? His prophecy that ‘India won’t win’.
As India cruised past Pakistan, celebrations erupted across the country. Virat Kohli’s century sealed the win, but amid the cheers, the Maha Kumbh Mela fame started trending on X.
The aerospace engineer-turned-sadhu, who went viral during Maha Kumbh Mela, had confidently predicted on a podcast that India had “no chance” of winning. He even challenged Kohli and the team to prove him wrong. “If I say India won’t win, they won’t,” he had said.
Ever since India secured its easy win against Pakistan, social media users flooded X with memes as they seized upon the opportunity to slam the so-called baba for his prophecy.
Take a look at a few memes here:
The internet’s frustration was apparent. Several social media users demanded that the viral unhealth stop making predictions from now onwards, with a few jokingly asking him to retire from making public appearances altogether.
Entrepreneur Prafull Billore, popularly known as MBA Chai Wala, mockingly resigned from his unofficial title of panauti (bad luck) for team India as he said that IITian Baba could take over.
“I have resigned recently from my job. It’s all yours now!! Ram ram, Jay Shri Ram,” Billore said as he shared a photo of Abhay Singh in a post on X.
A YouTuber also called him during his livestream soon after India won. A video of the moment has gone viral on social media. “Is there any message you would like to convey, now that India has won,” the YouTuber asks, to which the IITian Baba says, “There is no message. Please don’t believe in such prophecies.”
Following the backlash, Abhay Singh shared a post on X, apologising for his prediction. He shared pictures of Kohli and team India celebrating as he confessed somewhere deeper down his heart he knew India would win.
“I want to publicly apologise and ask each one of you all to celebrate; It’s party time. Mujhe man hi man pata tha ki india jetega,” he said.
Whether or not he saw this coming, certainly, the internet did not let him off easily.
