Bangalore: Popular English weekly Outlook has put a smiling picture of U.S. President Barack Obama on its latest issue's cover, calling Obama 'The Underachiever,' a tag that was used by TIME a fortnight back to describe Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh. In its cover teaser, Outlook wrote: "America needed a reboot he promised hope and change. Four years on, President Barack Obama's sheen is gone. Can his lofty rhetoric carry him home again?” reports IBN Live.
TIME's depiction of the Indian Prime Minister was not taken just as a magazine cover story. The principal ruling party and the Opposition were both vocal about the report, the former holding responsible the international weekly of failing to understand Indian realities and the latter finding justification of its stance in the article.

Outlook's cover has turned out to become a talking point on social media platforms. Spaces like Tweeter and Facebook are abuzz with people arguing about it. The cover image has been extensively shared too.
