An influencer couple dressed as 'Spiderman' and 'Spiderwoman' in South West Delhi's Dwarka landed themselves in trouble, as they were arrested while shooting an Instagram reel in the streets to gain more followers. Shortly after their video went viral on social media, the two creators were taken into custody on Friday for breaking traffic laws, which included riding a bike without a number plate or mirror.
The Delhi Police described the couple as the "Spiderman couple" who were also observed riding the bike without helmets.

Titled "Spiderman Najafgarh Part 5," Aditya and his friend Anjali posted a video on Instagram of them riding a bike. The "Spider-Woman" can be seen leaving a metro station with her Spiderman companion in the video. The two then exchange handshakes. Then the Spiderwomen gets onto the bike and the two of them take a ride through Delhi's streets.
NDTV reports that the Delhi traffic police arrested the two and issued a challan under the Motor Vehicle Act shortly after the video went viral.
But the self-described Najafgarh Spiderman has performed such an act in public before while dressed as a superhero. Along with running Indian Spidey Official, an Instagram account, the 20-year-old Najafgarh resident usually shares videos of his "stunts."
