The dramatic clash between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and former US President Donald Trump during their meeting at the White House on Friday has sent shockwaves across the globe. The heated exchange, which unfolded in front of the media, has not only drawn reactions from political analysts but also sparked commentary from celebrities, including Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan, whose cryptic tweet has left netizens speculating.
What Did Amitabh Bachchan Tweet?
On Saturday morning, Amitabh Bachchan took to Twitter (now X) to share a seemingly innocuous yet loaded tweet: “Gaye the, waapis aagaye (Went there but came back).” While the tweet was open to interpretation, many netizens quickly connected it to the Trump-Zelenskyy showdown, given its uncanny relevance to the situation.
One user commented, “JELENSKI gaye the America, waapis aagaye beizzat hoke (Zelensky went to America but came back after getting disrespected),” while another quipped, “Even Bachchan sir has more diplomatic skills than Zelensky. Even he can say things in a subtle manner.” The tweet sparked a flurry of memes and discussions, with fans applauding Bachchan’s subtlety and wit.
Comedian Vir Das also weighed in on the incident, tweeting, “Zelenskyy walked into a planned televised ambush and his ego took the bait. Massive political blunder to lose poise like that.”
What Happened at the White House?
The bilateral meeting between Zelenskyy and Trump, which was intended to address ongoing geopolitical tensions, quickly devolved into a fiery exchange. The confrontation, which played out in the Oval Office in front of the global media, saw Trump accusing Zelenskyy of “gambling with the lives of millions of people” and risking World War Three.
Trump’s remarks were sharp and direct: “You’re gambling with World War Three, and what you’re doing is very disrespectful to this country, which has backed you far more than a lot of people say they should.”
Zelenskyy, in response, brought up Russian President Vladimir Putin’s 2014 invasion of Crimea, a move that further escalated tensions. Vice President J.D. Vance interjected, stating, “I think it’s disrespectful for you to come to the Oval Office to try to litigate this in front of the American media. You should be thanking the president for trying to bring you into this conference.”
The meeting ended on a tense note, with Trump later releasing a statement claiming, “We had a very meaningful meeting in the White House today. Much was learned that could never be understood without conversation under such fire and pressure.”

The unprecedented clash has drawn widespread attention, with political analysts calling it a diplomatic disaster. Many have criticized Zelenskyy for losing his composure, while others have accused Trump of deliberately provoking the Ukrainian leader. The incident has also reignited debates about the US-Ukraine relationship and the broader implications for global security.
Amitabh Bachchan’s tweet, though cryptic, has added a layer of cultural commentary to the incident, showcasing how global political events often resonate far beyond their immediate context. Whether intentional or not, his words have struck a chord with netizens, proving once again that sometimes, less is more.
As the world continues to dissect the Trump-Zelenskyy showdown, one thing is clear: the fallout from this meeting will be felt for a long time to come. And if Amitabh Bachchan’s tweet is any indication, even Bollywood isn’t immune to the drama of global politics.
