October 2 is known as Mahatma Gandhi's birthday, a significant day in India. However, social media users have a different focus. They commemorate the day by sharing memes related to Ajay Devgn's popular 2015 film Drishyam. In the film, Devgn’s character, Vijay Salgaonkar, repeatedly says, "Kal 2 October hai, yaad hai na!" as he constructs a false alibi for his family, which plays a crucial role in the plot.

This reflects the ongoing connection between the film and its audience, even years later.
