A couple of months ago, Prime Minister Narendra Modi took to his radio show ‘Mann ki Baat’ to urge people to stay fit and called for a fitness movement. Taking this appeal of Prime Minister forward, the newly appointed Information and Broadcasting Minister Rajyavardhan Rathore kicked off a fitness challenge with name Hum Fit Toh India Fit. In a tweet, Rathore asked celebrities Virat Kohli, Saina Nehwal and Hrithik Roshan to upload a picture or video of how they keep themselves fit and further their challenge their friends on social media.

In no time, a chain kicked off with stars in various fields further challenging more celebs to take up the Fitness Challenge. As the movement went ahead, it reached PV Sindhu who challenged Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone to upload a video or picture of how she keeps herself fit. Here is the tweet by PV Sindhu:

The video was all over the internet in no time with a huge number of views, likes and retweets. But despite all this, Deepika Padukone ended up getting trolled for her way of accepting it. Social media users got furious as Deepika uploaded an old video instead of taking the challenge in a fair way and sharing a new video/ picture and trolled the actress for the same. Take a look at some of these tweets below:
