Arnab can be seen posing a question to Aparna via phone. Unfortunately, due to technical difficulities Aparna was unable to hear any questions, while Arnab can be found screaming out the same set of questions.
The video clip of the press conference immediately went viral. It can be observed that Aparna, continued with her press conference whereas Arnab kept firing questions about Zaira Wasim and other issues.

Me: But that was Aurangzeb’s time! Journo: Why were u silent then? Answer me! The nation wants to know!”. The tweet since then has gone viral and attracted lot of hilarious reactions by the netizens.
