• The two were accused at iolating Indian Criminal Code sections 279.
• He has a sizable following on YouTube.

Warning labels are frequently featured in action-packed movies since the results of reckless actions performed without the correct supervision can be disastrous.

Joravar Singh Kalsi, a YouTuber from Delhi, and his friend Gurpret Singh were recently detained by Indian police for reckless driving while attempting to replicate a scene from the Shahid Kapoor film Farzi.

The police were able to identify Kalsi, who has a sizable following on YouTube, because of a video called “Paise uda Feroz,” in which he and a companion can be seen driving down Golf Course Road while throwing fake currency and mouthing dialogue from a web series. According to the Indian Express, they joined the inquiry and were subsequently released.

The two were accused at the Sushant Lok police station with violating Indian Criminal Code sections 279 (rash driving or riding on a public route), 283 (risk or obstruction in a public way or line of navigation), and 336 (act endangering life or personal safety of others).

Police official Vikas Kaushik stated, “The matter was brought to our attention from social media. In the clip, two people are seen moving in a car on Golf Course Road and recreating a scene from a web show. It appears they did not have any permission, and the act was done without any safety measures in place. It has been noticed of late that people have been recording such videos to gain popularity on social media and putting the safety of commuters at risk, which could result in fatal accidents. A case has been registered against the people in the video.”

The FIR claims that two guys were operating a car carelessly on Golf Course Road, with one driving and the other dropping fake currency onto the road. On March 2, a video of the incident was taken, and Joravar Singh Kalsi—who the police later identified—uploaded the video on YouTube. On a motorcycle, two additional people captured the incident on camera. The fake currency notes were marked with the names Manoranjan Bank of India and had the denominations of 500 and 2,000 INR.

Police officials have urged the public to refrain from such behaviour, especially on congested areas like Golf Course Road that are dangerous for both automobiles and pedestrians. The tragedy serves as a reminder of the dangers of performing feats without the appropriate safety equipment and qualified supervision, as well as the value of abiding by traffic laws.
