Eager to meet my friend Modi says Trump

Washington: US president Donald Trump is all set to embark on his first visit to India and before departing from the White House on Sunday, he tweeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi is best friend and he was looking forward to being with his "great friends" there.

The US President, First Lady Melania Trump and a high-level delegation will fly into the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad before noon on Monday. They will also be accompanied by Trump's daughter Ivanka Trump and her husband and Trump's senior adviser Jared Kosher.

Along with the tweet, Trump shared an 81-second video by a Twitter account identified as "Sol" with the handle Solmemes1. In the video, Trump appears as a great saviour, in the short animated clip, riding on a chariot with First Lady Melania.

A few stills later, Trump is seen riding a horse carrying on his soldiers his son Donald Junior and daughter Ivanka. Later, he is welcomed by Prime Minister Modi in a village setting. Hundreds and thousands of people are seen welcoming Trump in the video.

"This week Trump will visit India and in celebration I have created a new meme for the occasion... You few, who are my patrons, get to see it first!" Sol told viewers on subscription content service Patreon on Saturday.

In the Twitter description, Sol describes herself as "award winning master memetician, professor of memology at University of GFY, my views are my own and not associated with real life."

The video, which ends with "USA and India United", went viral after Trump retweeted it. In a few hours, it was seen by more than ten lakh people.

Sol in one of her previous posts, dated January 23, writes she was inspired by a video of Bahubali sent to her by a friend, which is the story of 'good defeating evil.'
