Alex Ellis, the British High Commissioner to India, recently requested movie recommendations on Twitter so that he could improve his Hindi. He then shared the list of the films that made it to his watch list. But soon, his tweet caused a laugh riot as he misspelt the title of a classic film Sholay as 'chole'.
"Thanks for the suggestions. So I'll watch 1. Chole 2. Chupke Chupke 3. I hate violence, but Gangs Wasseypur, so I can say something friendly to the cricket opposition. I have seen Lagaan, that's why I tell my colleagues every day, 'Dugna lagaan dena padega,'" wrote Alex Ellis in the tweet.

A third joked, "There is no point watching Chole alone without Kulche. Please watch both together for a better experience." "Watch Bathure also. Hold the oil," wrote a fourth.
