Bangalore: In the ever-changing world of marketing, companies are constantly looking for new and innovative ways to promote their products. One recent trend that has taken the world by storm is the use of memes, and a Bengaluru-based company is taking this to the next level by hiring a dedicated "Chief Meme Officer" with a generous salary package of over 1 Lakh. Meanwhile, traffic and police authorities have also started to find one’s feet into the “Memeing” way of making the public aware of the rules and guidelines.
In one such instance, The Bangalore City Police on Sunday added a touch of humor to the RCB fan’s Sunday, with a tweet saying “Eee sala....trophy bagge gottilla, guidelines follow maadi parking pakka sigutte,” (We Don’t know about the Trophy, but do follow the guidelines you will certainly get a parking spot).
We need more of these drives tonight.

Amidst the scorching heat, RCB’s spectacular win against Mumbai Indians, however, proved to be an exhilarating one for RCB fans, particularly fans of Virat Kohli, as it stoked their enthusiasm for the tournament.
RCB dominated Mumbai Indians in their opening match of IPL 2023, winning by eight wickets in Bengaluru. Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis put on a stunning 148-run opening partnership, with du Plessis scoring 73 off 43 balls. Mumbai Indians struggled early on and were 48/4 in 8.5 overs, but Tilak Verma's unbeaten 84 off 46 balls helped them reach a respectable total of 171/7. Verma combined with Nehal Wadhela and Arshad Khan to take the team out of trouble, but RCB comfortably chased down the target with Kohli remaining unbeaten on 82 off 49 balls.
