With the early trends showing the Congress inching towards the magic figure of 113 in the 224-member assembly in the Karnataka election 2023, the party tweeted a video of its leader Rahul Gandhi from ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’, with the song “Unstoppable” by Sia playing in the background.
“I'm invincible. I'm so confident. Yeah, I'm unstoppable today,” the Congress tweeted.
The lyrics of the song which plays during the video are- "I'm unstoppable. I'm a Porsche with no brakes. I'm invincible. Yeah, I win every single game. I'm so powerful. I don't need batteries to play. I'm so confident. Yeah, I'm unstoppable today."

The exit polls predicted a hung assembly with some showing Congress returning to power with a majority. A few exit polls also showed BJP ahead.
