The actor’s call for some healthy snack took Twitter by storm and netizens couldn’t hold themselves back from sharing their own ‘Rahul Bose moments’.

Twitterati reminisced the moments when they had to pay for something that broke their banks.

The fine was imposed after the hotel authorities fail to give a satisfactory reply on a show-cause notice served over the issue.

“In this matter, a showcase notice was issued to the hotel management. They were called today for the reply. But they could not give a satisfactory reply. So after hearing, they have been imposed with the fine,” said R K Chaudhry, Assistant Excise and Taxation Commissioner, UT Chandigarh.
