Actor Vijay’s selfie with fans most retweeted in Twitter in 2020

According to the trends released by Twitter, Actor Vijay’s selfie with his fans is the most retweeted tweet in India. Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli announcing the pregnancy is the most liked tweet of the year in India.

In politics, Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s tweet on lighting lamps at residence was the most retweeted tweet.

“This year has been quite unusual and unique. One of the major things we witnessed was the need to connect because we were physically distanced. Digital has become the most important way for people to express connection…rejoicing in celebratory moments, standing up for those communities impacted by the pandemic, bonding over rediscovered shows, interests and memes,” Manish Maheshwari, managing director, Twitter India, said.

“Globally, we have about 7,000 tweets per minute about TV and movies this year. In India also we see interesting trends. The Hindi movie Dil Bechara was the most tweeted about film to release this year, but immediately after that we had a Tamil film Soorarai Pottru and Telugu movie Sarileru Neekevvaru,” he pointed out.

“In India, this year we played a very important role in three categories — informing, connecting and entertaining. Twitter became the service through which people got to know about how things are evolving, and COVID-19 became the most used hashtag on the service. Within COVID-19, there were a range of hashtags around janta curfew, wearing masks etc.,” he added.

Among the trends, IPL2020 topped the sports while Dil Bechara topped the entertainment.

COVID19 topped the list of topics in current affairs that Indians had most conversations about. This was followed by late actor Sushant Singh Rajput and the Hathras murder and alleged gang-rape.
