Katrina Kaif has created a flurry on twitter, thanks to her remark on Congress leader Rahul Gandhi which did not go down well with the party.

When asked for his opinion on Katrina's comment, Congress spokesperson Manish Tewari said he didn't know who Katrina Kaif was. He added that it wasn't important for the country's politics to react to a statement made by people like Johnny Lever.

Ranvir Shorey was quick to point out the irony. 'Congress spokesman doesn't know who Katrina Kaif is, but knows who Johnny Lever is. The power of comedy... just saying,' he tweeted.

Sandhya Mridul promptly tweeted: 'my watchman doesn't know Katrina is but knows who Malaika bhabhi is..the power of Salman. Justsaying.'
