An individual wrote, "Not unbelievable. It's the Chinnaswamy. Watching Friends can be therapeutic for many. Wouldn't blame the girl!"
A second said, "Well, to be honest, both Friends and IPL are overrated. Oppisy!"
"She is trying to find new friends after her existing friends forced her to watch an RCB game," posted a third.
A fourth added, "Meh, I don't blame her. This year's IPL is not interesting at all; nobody is actually interested in it. At least not in my circle."
"Maybe she saw Kohli and Gambhir hugging, and she spiralled," said a fifth.
A sixth commented, "She definitely didn't come by herself to watch the match. Someone asked her to accompany them, and then she just came."
