The Lok Sabha Elections of 2014 are a little over a month away, which means that every political party is busy mocking other rival parties preparing for it. Amidst the earnest yet one-sided debates with Arnab Goswami and numerous meticulous campaigns, people from both inside and outside the political circle have found the time to take satirical swings at the three prime ministerial candidates: Rahul Gandhi, Narendra Modi and Arvind Kejriwal. With the biggest elections of our nation looming large, we at Homegrown decided to publish this because we’re mental and love putting our necks on the line for the sake of a couple of laughs take a look at some of the funniest political propaganda or satirical takes to have surfaced over the past few months.

II. The Haseeba Amin Spoof

VIII. Bal Narendra Comics
Ok we lied, this is our favourite. Now maybe you could help us out here because we don’t know for sure if this is a satirical take or a publicity stunt gone wrong. This 45 page comic book shows “Bal Narendra”, the ideal kid, do the ideal things, which include help his father serve tea, stand up to bullying, iron clothes by keeping it under his pillow, and most importantly, fight crocodiles, because let’s face it, that’s what an ideal kid does. Glimpses of this flabbergasting comic strip can be found here.
IX. Rahul.One
Although the video isn’t recent, it has resurfaced due to the election fever. It shows Rahul Gandhi play the lead in the movie Ra.One, and a bunch of other hilarious characters mocking the Aam Aadmi Party as well. This short video can be seen here:
X. Rahul Vs Modi feat. Kejriwal – The Rap Battle
Rahul, or Modi? Rahul, or Modi? How do we settle the matter, how do we know who’s the best? Well, of course, a face off! The rap battle sees Rahul and Modi try and one up each other in a rather funny fashion, with Kejriwal doing a Pitbull.
