Gone are the days when brands pushed out boring, template-like posts to reach out to their target audiences. It's 2019 and the best way to tap into the masses is, you guessed it, through memes. Unfortunately, when the low-cost airline IndiGo decided to go that route, it was promptly grounded by the Internet trolls.

After your favorite Twitter handles of companies such as Google, Youtube, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Linkedin, and One Plus wanted to really really know something via the viral meme:

really
really
really

IndiGo's Twitter handle too really really wanted to know why people stood up even when the seatbelt sign was on, and they really really got trolled brutally in return with complaints from the fliers.

While Indigo's tweet was seemingly aimed at asking the passengers why they would jeopardize their own safety during a flight, the post got into the trolls' radar and the airline's meme backfired almost immediately.

The airline had come under severe criticism last year after it announced it will be levying extra charges to passengers opting for web check-ins.

Wrapped in the meme format, the difficult questions kept coming IndiGo's way.

Bcz of ur customer service as they don’t allow passengers to board the flight even if they are a minute late. So rushing has become a part of their blood whilst travelling via indigo

May be they got upset stomachs after eating the in-flight food aggravated by the prices? And toilets cannot be used 20-25 mins before landing + taxy to ramp time!!

Do you really want to know ? 1. First of all, Individual bags are not kept that individuals overhead bins. 2. Pilot and Crew are too busy maneuvering the craft. Most often they forget to switch off Sit Belt on time .

However, some were kind enough to back the airline's meme attempt.

You have the guts to ask questions I'm sure you knew it will be backfired.. But keep asking.. Well done.. Hope you work on the complains as well
