One of the memes shared a photograph of actors Jake Gyllenhaal, Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman after the Deadpool actor was tricked into wearing an ugly sweater at a party. In one of the memes on the Delhi tremors, Reynolds, with his priceless pranked expression, was tagged as people of Delhi. Gyllenhaal and Jackman, seen having a laugh at him, are tagged earthquake and pollution, respectively.

Another meme featured Aamir Khan's character in PK, lamenting that he does not want to stay on a planet that has pollution in the day, eclipse in the evening and an earthquake at night.

One meme starred Shah Rukh Khan as Rahul in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, with a line from a superhit number that says, "Main to hil gaya".
Mr Khan featured in another meme: the comic shot in which he plays a dacoit asking everyone to flee in Om Shanti Om was shared as a message to Delhi residents after the tremors struck.

Some memes also captured the FOMO of those who slept through the tremors. An image of actor Rajpal Yadav from the movie 'Dhol' with the message, "Yeh kab hua (when did this happen?)" started doing the rounds.

Opinion | Why Indians Have Just Given Up On Air Pollution CrisisTanushree Ganguly
Friday December 20, 2024While some may argue that people in Delhi are now more aware of air pollution than they were a decade back, my rebuttal would be that awareness does not mean that people are concerned.

Tuesday December 10, 2024Delhi welcomed us with monsoon rains and mangos. We were home. Fast forward a couple of years, in the winter of 2012, I found myself in denial about something other parents, mostly expats, were calling toxic air.

Friday November 22, 2024On a good day, such as today, the AQI reading in Delhi is 407. We are jubilant at the sickly sunshine trickling through the slightly dissipated smog. At least its not 1600.

Friday November 08, 2024हमारी हवा जहरीली हो रही है. गुरुवार की शाम को जब मैं इस मुद्दे पर लिखने बैठी तो AQI लगातार 400 पार जाकर दम घोंट रहा था. बहुत लोगों को यह मामला बोरिंग लगे, लेकिन जब आप अपने साथ काम करने वालों को खांसते-हांफते देखते-सुनते हैं, तो चिंता होने लगती है. सुबह उठते ही दरवाजे खिड़कियां खोलने के लिए डॉक्टर मना कर रहे हैं. बड़े बुजुर्गों के लिए तो मॉर्निंग वॉक बाहर की दुनिया से सीधे संपर्क का ज़रिया है, लेकिन डॉक्टर इसकी भी मनाही कर रहे हैं.
