A bizarre trend 'Binod' was ranking on Twitter after a video shared by YouTubers Abhyudaya and Gautami went viral. The video shared on the channel Slayy Point talked about the Indian comment section explaining why it is garbage. A meme was born from the video, which is going viral on social media platforms. In their video, the YouTubers talked about one particular comment from a user named Binod Tharu, who commented own name in the comment section as if he was marking his territory. And Binod was not alone in doing so, several other users shared their own names in the comment section for no good reason, which became a point for Abhyudaya and Gautami to slam the commenters.
Binod everywhere
Netizens quickly picked up the name 'Binod' and started sharing it as jokes and memes, triggering a trend on social media. Now, several police departments and companies on Twitter are also participating in the trend, with payments app Paytm even changing its name on the micro-blogging site. Mumbai Police department, which is known for being pro-active on Twitter gave it a privacy twist as it requested people named 'Binod' to change their password if by any chance their password is their name because it is going 'pretty viral'. While Uttar Pradesh police shared the text 'Binod' with a sub-text that read, "now, since we have your attention, please wear a mask."

Nagpur city police took the opportunity to aware people about the importance of staying at home amid the coronavirus pandemic as it wrote, "Dear #binod, we know you have gone very viral, But your safety is important. corona is more famous than you so stay home, stay safe." meanwhile, dating app Tinder informed people that Binod is on its platform and has found a match in Binodini. Tinder went one step further to share what 'Binod' and 'Binodini' were chatting about, for which it received flak with Twitter users reminding it to respect their privacy (all in good humour though).
