"One user jokingly petitioned to rename all Government Holidays as Vijay Mallya Day!!" Another teased, "Tweeting on festival day won't give you the IPL trophy," poking fun at Mallya's former team, RCB, which has yet to clinch the Indian Premier League title.

A third commenter chimed in, saying, "Thank you, sir. We only know it's a bank holiday today because of you." Today, banks in Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Manipur, Goa, Jammu, and Srinagar remain closed.
