Ivanka Trump has praised the warmth of Indian social media users after endorsing an image-editing craze which began with a photoshopped picture showing her visiting the Taj Mahal with a local actor.
The photoshopping spree started when an unnamed fan of singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh inserted his image into a photo of Ivanka – US President Donald Trump’s eldest daughter – enjoying a view of the iconic Taj Mahal during a trip to India earlier this week.
Dosanjh apparently liked the result so much that he shared the image on Twitter. “Me & Ivanka. She [was asking me] to take her to Taj Mahal. So I took her, what else could I have done?” he joked.
Ivanka took the joke well and thanked the entertainer for “taking” her to the Taj Mahal, saying that the trip was “an experience I will never forget!” She also shared the doctored photo with her 7.8 million followers.
Thank you for taking me to the spectacular Taj Mahal, @diljitdosanjh! 😉
Meanwhile, other Indian users began posting their own edits, inserting local men into Ivanka’s picture in a similar fashion. Some joked that Dosanjh was actually “late” for being Ivanka’s tour guide.
Ivanka – who is her father’s senior adviser – did not mind this turn of events, tweeting: “I appreciate the warmth of the Indian people… I made many new friends!!!”
