Hanuma Vihari had posted an update on his SOS tweet when a Twitter user made distasteful comment.
India's Test specialist Hanuma Vihari shut down a troll for making a racist comment on his post. On Sunday (May 9), Vihar had posted an update on his SOS tweet for a friend in Kakinada, Andhra Pradesh. He was struggling to get Remdesivir injections and sought help on Twitter.
After receiving the help he thanked the joint collector G Rajakumari on his Twitter account and followed it up with a tweet in his mother tongue, Telugu language.

A Twitter user replied to his tweet with casual racism and asked Vihari to serve him masala dosa. The India batsman slammed him with a generous reply to an offensive tweet.
"I would if you’re suffering like many people in India are right now. Oh, wait a minute you’re actually suffering from a different disease. I’m sorry!", he replied.
As soon as Vihari responded, the Twitter user had to deactivate his account. Fans applauded him for giving a befitting reply and not tolerating racism.
Talking about cricket, Vihari has made a return to Team India squad for England tour after missing out on the Test series against England at home due to injury sustained during India’s tour to Australia earlier this year.
