BANGALORE, INDIA: Are you wondering what Kha.one, Tees Maar Khan, and slapgate are doing on Twitter? Well, we'll tell you. The Shah Rukh Khan-Shirish Kunder brawl has taken a comic turn on social networking sites, especially Twitter. Why not? It was Twitter where everything began.

For starters, Shah Rukh Khan slapped editor-turned-film maker Kunder at Sanjay Dutt's party last week. Apparently, he couldn't tolerate Kunder openly taking potshots at him on his latest flick RA.One. Soon after its release, Kunder had tweeted: "I just heard a 150 Cr firework fizzle."

And even after weeks, Khan kept the fire burning inside him and it came out in the open at the party. Thus the slapgate. The entire episode has taken a comic turn on Twitter with the most common hashtag trends being #slapgate, #shirishkunder, #srk, and #replaceSRKMoviesWithSlap.

The latest slapgate is acting as a timeline to all previous ones. Drawing a parallel between Kunder and veteran politician Sharad Pawar, who was slapped by a man at a political event, a tweet reads: “Shahrukh Khan slaps Shirish Kunder! ... Sharad Pawar in exile.”

Another read: “Kunder is not Mahatma Gandhi. He didn't give his another cheek.” That was posted on January 30, the death anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi.

Yet another was: “Shahrukh Khan slapped Shirish Kunder on behalf of the Family planning commission.” That was a bit too personal as Shirish is the dad of triplets.

But nothing can beat this one: “SRK: Hw ws d slap??? KUNDER: Raw.One”

Perhaps it was raw as Kunder maintains that he will not take any action against SRK. But Twitterites have turned this ugly incident into a humorous play. Do you have any wisecracks on two Ks. Feel free to leave them here.
