Ivanka Trump tapped into her playful side Sunday after her photos of her taken at the Taj Mahal became a popular meme in India.

The daughter and senior adviser to President Trump accompanied her father on his first official visit to India last week, where she posed for a photo in front of the iconic landmark in Agra.

“The grandeur and beauty of the Taj Mahal is awe inspiring,” her caption read.

The photo became a meme after male Indian fans started photoshopping themselves into the picture with Ms. Trump.

“She was after me to take her to the Taj. I took her, because what else could I do?” Indian singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh tweeted to his 3.6 million followers.

Ms. Trump retweeted the doctored image and responded: “Thank you for taking me to the spectacular Taj Mahal, @diljitdosanjh! It was an experience I will never forget!”

She also retweeted several other memes people had made from her photo, writing: “I appreciate the warmth of the Indian people. …I made many new friends!!!”
