Roger Federer took Twitter by storm when he asked his fans in India to photoshop him at interesting locations around the country.

Immediately after the Swiss ace confirmed participation in the International Premier Tennis League (IPTL), replacing an injured Rafael Nadal in the Indian Aces squad, he tweeted: "India, here I come! Looking forward to playing two matches in Delhi on December 7th & 8th. I'm beyond excited!

"I need some help from my supporters in India. I'm only in Delhi for a few days, so can't visit all amazing places that I'd like...

"Maybe you guys could help #PhotoshopRF? Show me where I should visit and I'll retweet the best pics!

The reaction was instant.

Fans across India are now photo-shopping his picture and the results are amazing. Take a look.
