KFC tags a wrong Priya Malik in a congratulatory tweet 

KFC meant to congratulate the wrestler who clinched a gold medal at World Cadet Wrestling Championship being held at Hungary’s Budapest, but mistakenly tagged actor and poet-performer Priya Malik instead.

Goof-ups with sports winner names seem to have become common now. This time again, KFC India, in a now-deleted tweet, tagged the wrong Priya Malik to send out their congratulations instead of wrestler Priya Malik.

The poet-performer who realised the goof-up quickly took to Twitter with a hilarious response. “I only wear gold and I’m always hungry @KFC India,” she wrote, mentioning that the food company had tagged the wrong person with the same name.

However, the poet-performer seemed to have a lot of fun roasting KFC as she didn’t stop with one tweet but showed some creative funny side of hers in her following tweets.

In one, she wrote, “Dear Twitter, #Wrestling ke zamaane main, aap poetry waali #PriyaMalik dhoond chuke hain! (In the era of wrestling, you have come upon the poetry)”. The line plays upon her own Hindi performance poetry “2019 Mein 1999”.

 

Dear Twitter, #Wrestling ke zamaane main, aap poetry waali #PriyaMalik dhoond chuke hain!

In another tweet, Priya declared, “Vaise ghar par jab bhi pati se ladaai hoti hai tab bhi gold main hee jeetti hoon, (Whenever there is a fight with my husband at home, I’m the one who wins gold)”.

However, wrestler Priya Malik, who might be high on her victory, didn’t seem to look into the goof-up. The wrestler, in the final bout of the 73 kg category, defeated Kesniya Patapovich 5-0 to win the title in Budapest.
