It’s the second anniversary of the Baghpat Chaat War. (Credits: Twitter)
Just like that, it’s the Baghpat Chaat War’s second anniversary. Never forget the bravehearts, especially Einstein Chacha.
The Baghpat ‘chaat war’ has, just like that, reached its second anniversary this February and Twitter hasn’t forgotten to tip their hats to the brave heroes who went viral forever that fateful day in 2021. If you somehow happened to bypass this significant historical event, the Internet dubbed a huge fight that broke out around this day in 2021 between two groups of ‘chaat’ vendors over customers as the Great Baghpat Chaat War, sometimes also known as the Great Battle of Papdi Chaat.
Twelve people were injured and eight were arrested in the incident in 2021, though no serious injuries were reported. Of the Baghpat Chaat War heroes, ‘Einstein Chacha’ or ‘Virus’ (played by Boman Irani in 3 Idiots) doppelganger is of special note. His dispassionate facial expression is truly representative of our times.

Two years since the most iconic fight in history of independent India- Baaghpat Chaat Yudh. Kids will be taught about this in their history textbooks and how these bravehearts went to jail. https://t.co/KQj4zXiwwK

Happy second anniversary of the Battle of Baghpat, everyone. The epic battle, full of enthralling twists and turns, is still the greatest action video clip to have come on to the internet in the recent past.

By the way, Einstein Chacha has since cut his hair. Here’s what Harendra Singh looks like now, after cutting his hair to rid himself of the perils of fame, as reported by an AajTak journalist.
बागपत के ‘चाट युद्ध’ में शामिल रहे ‘चाचा’ ने बदला अपना लुक, कटवाए बाल.’चाट वाले चाचा’ के नाम से मशहूर हरेंद्र सिंह बोले- सेलिब्रिटी की तरह फेमस हो गए थे और लड़के-लड़कियां उनके साथ सेल्फी लेते थे, दुकान चलाने में दिक्कत होती थी. इसलिए बाल कटवा लिए. #Baghpat #viral #UttarPradesh pic.twitter.com/rpvzNEYnBJ
