Tesla CEO Elon Musk is secretly a Hindi film fan. Musk tweeted out a link to the 'Deewani Mastani' song from Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Bajirao Mastani (2015), starring Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone, with two hearts emojis. The tech investor and engineer usually shares news about his company's futuristic products and advancements in science.

Musk's sudden appreciation for the film, surprised Indians on Twitter who quickly began to question him, meme-style, about his taste. His tweet received over 9,000 retweets and 43,000 likes.

Some even imagined Singh and Padukone's reactions at Musk's interest.

Others questioned if Musk was eyeing the Indian market for next expansion.

Even Eros Now, who co-produced the film, and Voot, its online streaming platform, got into the fun, using Musk's recommendation to promote the film.

The entrepreneur is listed by Forbes magazine as the 54th-richest person in the world. He also founded SpaceX, a company aiming to revolutionize space technology and looking to colonize the planet of Mars.
