Rescue from Harry and Sejal, man urges External Affairs Minister on Twitter

New Delhi, Aug 8 (IBNS): External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj fought for several Indians since 2014, but the latest help sought from her seemed to be too tough to deliver.

The reason behind Swaraj's trouble in dealing with the problem of a young man is the love story of a couple, Harry-Sejal. The man watching the latest Shah Rukh Khan film Jab Harry Met Sejal felt so distressed that he tweeted Swaraj to rescue him from the movie theatre in Pune.

Above all, the love story was superficial i.e. on silver screen, which probably made tougher for the External Affairs Minister to help the young man.

Anushka Sharma and Shah Rukh Khan starrer Jab Harry Met Sejal is a film which earned widespread negative reviews since its release for lacking a storyline and script but the young man Vishal Surywanshi's reaction has been craziest to say the least.

The Wipro employee tweeted to the country's External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj seeking help so that he could be rescued from the movie hall amid so-called boring film.

Surywanshi wrote on Twitter: "@SushmaSwaraj mam, I'm watching #JabHarryMetSejal at Xion cinema Hinjewadi, Pune. Please rescue me as soon as possible.."

Imtiaz Ali directed film failed to capitalise the extended weekend with Raksha Bandhan as it crawled to reach the 50cr mark at the box office on Monday.

Film critic Taran Adarsh tweeted: #JabHarryMetSejal Fri 15.25 cr, Sat 15 cr, Sun 15.50 cr, Mon 7.15 cr [Raksha Bandhan]. Total: â‚¹ 52.90 cr. India biz... #JHMS."
