October 2 is celebrated as Gandhi Jayanti to mark the birth anniversary of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. The day also marked as the birth anniversary of former Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri. However, Bollywood fans instead remember the Ajay Devgn starrer Drishyam.
In the film, which was released in 2015, Vijay Salgaonkar, played by Devgn, used this date to create an alibi to get out of murder. During the course of the film, he repeatedly used the date to different characters in the film. Vijay also gathered all the bus tickets, movie tickets, lodging and restaurant bills to prove his alibi. The date of October 2 has become an important motif in the film.
Ever since Drishyam released, Bollywood fans remind each other of Vijay’s dialogue prior to October 2. Netizens who remembered the plot of the film made sure to inform us all on microblogging site Twitter.
Talking about the Drishyam memes, one user tweeted, “2 October ko Vijay or uski family Panaji gaye the satsang mein or waha pav bhaaji khai or 3 oct ko wapas aa gaye the.” While another user tweeted, “@ajaydevgn Kal 2 October hai, yaad se sab ko samjha dena. -#Drishyam.”
Take a look at the tweets here:
Your annual reminder that today is October 2, when Vijay Salgaonkar
went to Panjim with his family to attend Swami Chinmayanand’s Satsang.
They stayed in a hotel, ate paav bhaji, watched a movie and returned the next day i.e. 3rd Oct.
Anyone up for Swami Chinmayanand’s Satsang on 2nd October at Panji? Will be back on 3rd october, will also eat Pav Bhaji. #Drishyam

So happy right now, I just planned a trip to Goa couple of hours ago and now I’m almost ready, done with packing. It was all spontaneous and I’m really happy to meet Vijay Salgaonkar and his family at Swami Chinmayanand’s satsang in Panaji tomorrow 🙌
