‘Tubelight’ gets Twitter emoji

Director Kabir Khan’s upcoming movie, Tubelight, is the first Bollywood film to get an emoji on Twitter.

Khan on Tuesday took to Twitter, where he shared the emoji and wrote: “Happy to announce that Tubelight becomes the first Bollywood film with its own character emoji Tubelight! Salman Khan.”

The emoji shows Salman Khan in his Tubelight pose, in which he is seen saluting with a shoe hanging around his neck.

Salman responded to the tweet, posting: “Kabir Khan Twitter ko full light kar dega ab yeh ‘Tubelight’ emoji! Tubelight [the emoji is lighting up Twitter].”

The movie marks the third collaboration between the two Khans, who have previously worked together in Ek Tha Tiger and Bajrangi Bhaijaan.

Tubelight, which also stars Chinese actress Zhu Zhu, is out in Indian cinemas on June 23.
