Rajat Dalal Viral Video: YouTuber and fitness influencer Rajat Dalal is back in the headlines, and this time, the stories had hardly anything to do with a ‘fighting challenge’. Yes, taking to his Instagram story, the YouTuber shared a video of him driving on a busy highway, where at the end of it, he ended up avoiding a road accident at the last second. The said story soon was shared on multiple social media platforms, making it go further viral. However, what stuck with netizens the most was the way Dalal was driving and his ‘casual’ take on what could have happened.
Most people called him out for his ‘rash driving’, while the rest were not happy with the way he was rather worried about giving ‘meme materials’ through an accident, instead getting hurt or hurting others.
Just a few days ago, the influencer was in the spotlight over controversy with another YouTuber and fitness influencer Rajveer Sisodia. The two challenged each other for a fight, which was eventually intervened by the police and their legal warnings.
The video was shared on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), by the handle ‘Ghar ke kalesh’. The post was captioned, “Instagram Story Close To Road-Rage Kalesh.”

The video went viral and left many irked. Many chastised his driving and some criticised his casual take on a possible accident. A majority also demanded action over the influencer’s careless driving. The video was shared today and pulled 227K views from netizens.
Taking to the comment section, people shared their views. “His whole content is based on kalesh like you,” a user said. “I remember when my brother was 19 years old he used to drive like this but the guy in this video looks 40 years old jeevan me budhapa jaldi data hai or buddhi late (People might age fast but might never develop a brain),” added a second person. “He always acts like this and does something that will surely trigger people. Why is he even relevant yet,” added a third person.
“Instagram these days has become a reason to trigger such issues,” commented a fourth user. “Was he driving or was he playing a video game? Was it even that? This type of driving and such videos should not be encouraged. This reel should be used as evidence against him,” said another.
