'Na na karte pyar tumhi se kar baithe' - Akhilesh Yadav's filmy take on fresh Nitish Kumar-BJP bonhomie

New Delhi: Hours after Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar decided to part ways with his party's allies in the 'Grand Alliance', former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav took to popular networking website Twitter to share his reactions on the dramatic political developments in Bihar in pure Bollywood style.

The Samajwadi Party chief tweeted two lines of a popular Bollywood song: "Na na karte pyar tumhi se kar baithe, karna tha inkar, magar ikrar, tumhi se kar baithe". 

ना ना करते, प्यार तुम्हीं से कर बैठे
करना था इंकार मगर इक़रार तुम्हीं से कर बैठे

The song, which featured in the popular 1965 film 'Jab Jab Phool Khile', shows two actors saying how despite asserting that they would never fall in love with each other, they ultimately did get together.

In dramatic and fast-paced developments in Bihar, Nitish Kumar in the evening of July 26 resigned as Chief Minister dumping the RJD and Congress to stitch a new alliance with BJP, which quickly announced support to a new government under him and said it will join it too.

Nitish Kumar ended a 20-month-long grand alliance coalition that defeated the BJP in 2015 and gave his resignation claiming he can't work in the "current circumstances" following corruption charges against Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav - son of RJD chief Lalu Prasad.
