"HAPPINESS truly is a state of mind," said Suniel Shetty when he saw the picture shared by Atul Kasbekar on Twitter.
The picture depicts five children clicking a group-selfie together, but if you take a closer look, you will notice that instead of the camera they have a slipper in hand.
The innocence of the children touched everyone’s hearts.
The picture went viral within minutes with the #Pictureoftheday. The post was shared widely by B-town celebrities.
Atul Kasbekar wrote: “I’m sharing this image that came in on text caused unbridled innocence n joy of these lovely kids moved me n made me smile in equal measure. Super image that asks questions if anyone can reliably locate these munchkins n d photog I’d love to personally send them something each”.
Megastar Amitabh Bachchan had his doubts about the picture. He wondered if the photograph was “photo-shopped”.
Bachchan tweeted: “With due respect and apology..I feel this is photoshopped .. Notice that the hand that holds the chappal is different than the rest of his body in size..to his other hand by his side !!”.
To which Atul replied: “Amit ji. Nice to hear from u. Checked wt 3 post-prod experts independently,
- Doo Creative, Hyd
- Khurshed Poonawala
- @HappyFinishAsia
All of them said it’s NOT photoshopped. The hand wt the chappal looking enlarged is a matter of perspective distortion standard on smartphones”.
