Chetan Bhagat is India’s one of the bestseller authors and ironically he is one of the most trolled ones as well. People love to read his books and then troll him for what he writes.
To promote his latest book Girl In Room 105, Chetan has collaborated with OLA. The idea is to encourage people to get a ride of OLA cabs and to offer the lucky winners a ride with the man himself plus discounts on his latest release.
Chetan Bhagat took to Twitter and shared the update with his followers. He wrote-
Let an Ola take you to your destination today and your next ride could be with me! Book your Ola today. Offer lasts till 25th September. #RideWithChetan#TheGirlInRoom105

Even OLA shared it on their official Twitter handle. They wrote-
A big shout-out to all @chetan_bhagat fans. We bring you a chance to meet Chetan and get an exclusive discount on his latest book, The Girl in Room 105.
The idea however backfired badly and people trolled Chetan Bhagat as they always do. Take a look at some reactions-

Thnks for the warning in advance. Time to avoid @Olacabs and use @Uber_India till the 25th Sep.. 😸😸

This looks like a conspiracy by @Uber_India to run @Olacabs out of business. I will not get into my own car if Chetan Bhagat is with me. A ride in mumbai local in peak hours is sounds better than riding an Ola with Greatest porn writer from IITs and IIMs.
