Bollywood celebs’ mixed reaction to Trump’s win

Bollywood celebrities came up with mixed reactions to Donald Trump`s win in the US presidential election on Wednesday.

Here’s what they had to say: Ronnie Screwvala: Trump and Brexit is a wake up call to leaders. Are you listening/open to feedback, or just wrapped up in your own circle of rhetoric! Media and Pundits need to now do some more soul searching on getting the pulse right Vs own experts talking to experts. Older Gen = 40+ whose vote prevailed both times. Younger gen wants to lead world - but older Gen is voting them out.

Ashoke Pandit: Congratulations Donald Trump for being elected as the 45th President of America with a great mandate.

Ram Gopal Varma: I predicted Trump’s win and now my prediction is he will be greatest president ever. Lincoln, Roosevelt, Kennedy will be forgotten.

Madhur Bhandarkar: Congratulations to Donald Trump for being elected the 45th POTUS through people’s mandate.

Arjun Rampal: Oh Teri! (Oh my God) Yeh jeet gaya (he won). New president Donald Trump. Hope all visiting America have got their visas.

Shirish Kunder: Good thing about Donald Trump becoming President is that now we can use the same tweets for Indian and American politics.  

Shekhar Kapur: Donald Trump 45th President of the United States! US Media is realising they no longer represent the opinion of the majority.  

Abhishek Kapoor: America... breatheee... it’s gonna be ok. Change is the only constant.

Vikram Bhatt: TRUMP, now the US has their own version of Brexit!!

Vishal Dadlani: Leaving NYC. Hoping to pass out on the plane, and wake up in London, to find that Trump was a horrific collective nightmare, but it’s over.

Saqib Saleem: The world feels like a big social experiment! Brexit. Trump. Sophie Choudry: One thing is for sure. It’s not Obama who proved anyone could be president. It is Trump who has trumped them all!
