Bong Joon Ho directed Parasite is undoubtedly one of the best feature films the world has ever watched. Starring Song Kang-ho, Lee Sun-kyun, Cho Yeo-jeong, Choi Woo-shik, Park So-dam, Jang Hye-jin and Lee Jung-eun, the Korean drama went on to bag the Academy Award, Golden Globes, Palme d'Or and several others. Wowing the critics and audience alike, Parasite conquered the cine industry last year. A number of Bollywood celebrities also showered love on the film, including Urvashi Rautela. The actress, on Twitter, shared her take on Parasite, but unfortunately, landed into trouble. Urvashi apparently copied the review of the film written by a New York-based writer named Jaun Paul Bammer.

Soon after Urvashi posted 'her review' on Twitter, users left no stone unturned to point out at the plagiarism. In the now-deleted tweet, the Pagalpanti actress wrote, "one thing I really love about @ParasiteMovie is that rather than depict the fam as scammers pretending to be good at their jobs, they actually do their jobs flawlessly! what they lack isn't skill, but institutional stamps of approval & the bows and ribbons that rich people love." Jaun, as a Twitter user shared a collage that compared Urvashi's review with his, reacted by saying he is rooting for her. However, a while later, he wrote, "Why didn't she at least correct the grammar" um my bad grammar?? is part of the vibe??? wow"

Interestingly, this isn't the first time that Urvashi has copied tweets. In the past, she picked up the note the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi wrote for Shabana Azmi post her fatal car accident. Urvashi, in her message for Shabana, wrote, "The news of @AzmiShabana Ji’s injury in an accident is distressing. I pray for her quick recovery," which is exactly the same that the PM wrote. Indeed, she was trolled for the same too.

The news of @AzmiShabana Ji’s injury in an accident is distressing. I pray for her quick recovery.
