With Nitish Kumar all set to take oath as Bihar’s chief minister once again on Wednesday, after ending his party’s coalition with the BJP and reuniting with Lalu Yadav's party to form a new government in the state, a meme song featuring both the leaders is going viral on social media.

The meme video shows both shaking their heads to the tunes of the popular song 'Qismat ki hawa kabhi naram, kabhi garam' from the 1951 film Albela.
With both the leaders’ faces animatedly lip-synced to the lyrics of the song, the meme seems perfect to describe the rapidly changing political atmosphere of the state.

Composed by C Ramchandra, the translation of the song's lyrics goes "The wind of destiny is sometimes gentle, and at times harsh". It is aptly suited to portray the ongoing political drama in Bihar, especially Nitish, for whom the winds have always been favourable.

Shared by several users on Twitter, the meme has gone crazy viral after Nitish dumped former ally BJP to reunite with foe-turned -friend Lalu’s Rashtriya Janata Dal.

The meme actually dates back to December 2020 and was posted by Gaya Meme on Twitter.

With Lalu’s son Tejashwi Prasad Yadav all set to be sworn in as Nitish’s deputy and as the political equations change tumultuously in Bihar, the social media is blazing with more such hilarious memes.
