The Incident: A Collision of Worlds
In a breaking development, an Orange Lamborghini of YouTuber Mridul Tiwari (The MriDul) crashed into two laborers on the roadside in Noida. Their condition remains unknown. The car was not driven by Mridul himself but by an unidentified individual. Video footage shows the other workers confronting the driver, asking, “Stunt jyada seekh liye ho?” (“Have you learned too many stunts?”) and calling for the police. The driver, seemingly unfazed, replies, “Koi mar gaya kya idhar?” (“Has someone died here?”). Inside his car, shopping bags from brands like Calvin Klein and Zara sit untouched, a stark contrast to the injured men outside. The moment reveals a disturbing mindset—if no one has died, it barely seems to matter.
Privilege, Recklessness, and a Worrying Trend
This isn’t an isolated case. From the Pune Porsche tragedy, where a builder’s teenage son killed two tech workers, to law student Rakshit Chaurasia’s deadly speeding incident in Vadodara, reckless driving among the rich keeps making headlines. These cases follow a common script—fast cars, unchecked arrogance, and an assumption that money can fix anything.
23-year-old Mridul Tiwari built an empire of 18 million subscribers by making comedic sketches about everyday life. But this time, the situation is anything but funny. Someone connected to him has turned the lives of two laborers upside down—crashing into them and then acting like its no big deal. The contrast is striking: a creator who jokes about daily struggles is now linked to a real-life crisis, though he wasn’t the driver, how he responds and whether he takes responsibility will be crucial.
What Comes Next?
This isn’t just about one reckless driver—it’s about a pattern we keep seeing. Will there be real consequences, or will this just fade away like so many similar cases? When the rich walk away from these crashes while the victims are left to suffer, it raises a simple but troubling question: does accountability depend on who you are?
