Atheist Krishna" Dies: Beloved Internet Creator & Meme King Remembered by PM Modi, Akshay Kumar

New Delhi, India – The internet community is mourning the loss of "Atheist Krishna," a widely popular online creator celebrated for his humorous memes and remarkable photo restoration skills. Krishna passed away today due to complications from pneumonia. His unique talent for transforming old, damaged photographs into vibrant, lifelike images, coupled with his witty humor, garnered him a vast following, even catching the attention of prominent figures like Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Bollywood star Akshay Kumar.

Krishna's work extended beyond mere entertainment. He was particularly known for the emotional impact of his photo restorations, which often brought immense joy to those whose cherished memories he painstakingly revived.

News of his passing, at a relatively young age, sent shockwaves through his online community. While his exact age remains undisclosed, a post from user @nainaverse revealed that Krishna had been unwell and required surgery. Tragically, he contracted pneumonia, which severely worsened his condition. His brother confirmed in a WhatsApp chat that Krishna died at 4:30 AM IST on July 23rd.

"Woke up to the terrible news of Atheist_Krishna passing away. He was one of the kindest people I met on this platform," wrote @nainaverse, sharing a screenshot of a conversation where Krishna had expressed, "It would be a miracle if I survive this," after contracting pneumonia. "Gone too soon...," the user added.

Praised by PM Modi and Akshay Kumar

Krishna's creative genius had previously earned him high praise. Actor Akshay Kumar shared a heartfelt video revealing that he had shown one of Krishna's memes to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who "had a hearty laugh."

In the video, Kumar had lauded Krishna, saying, "Hi Krishna, this is Akshay. Few of my friends know about you and follow your content. They told me about the incredible work you do with your Photoshop skill to bring smile on people's faces... Keep bringing a smile on people's face with your clean and honest humour. You will receive a lot of blessings. Keep it up, Krishna."

Prime Minister Modi himself later reposted the video, adding, "Like all of you, I also enjoyed seeing myself dance. Such creativity in peak poll season is truly a delight!"

Tributes Pour In

Following the news of his death, an outpouring of tributes flooded social media platforms from fans, fellow creators, and celebrities alike, underscoring the profound impact Krishna had on their lives.

Actress Rupali Ganguly expressed her grief on X (formerly Twitter), remembering Krishna as a "master of visual satire." She wrote, "The timeline feels emptier today! @Atheist_Krishna wasn't just a master of visual satire, he was emotion wrapped in sarcasm and humour. His Photoshop jokes made us smile and laugh, but his silence today leaves a void. You'll be missed, Krishna. Om Shanti."

Fans remembered his "fearless expression" and the deep emotional connection his work fostered. Many recalled his iconic contributions, affectionately calling him the "Prince of Funny Photoshop Videos." The digital world has lost a truly unique and heartwarming talent.
