Lucknow Viral Video: A video from Lucknow has gone viral and made just about everyone who saw it on social media shocked and pleased. In the clip, an e-rickshaw driver who looks a lot like the famous South Indian actor Rajinikanth does a dramatic move on a road with a lot of traffic. People online made jokes about a “long-lost cousin” of the famous person, but the cops in the area were not amused at all.
What is the video that went viral about?
The e-rickshaw driver in the video stands sure of himself at the front of the moving vehicle, copying Rajinikanth’s famous style and confidence. Many people have made strange comparisons between him and the famous actor because of how he looks, including his facial features, hairstyle, and body language.
The clip quickly got thousands of views and comments on Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), Facebook, and other sites within hours.
People on social media are both amazed and amused
People on social media filled the comment sections with funny jokes, memes, and references to pop culture. Some people joked about whether Rajinikanth had a “hidden family connection” in Uttar Pradesh, while others praised the driver’s confidence and on-screen presence.
Even though it was meant to be funny, some people were worried about road safety and reckless behaviour, pointing out that the act could have caused a bad accident.
Traffic Violation: Police Step In
The popular e-rickshaw stunt video was noticed by the Lucknow Police, who took action according to traffic safety rules. Officials made it clear in X that, no matter how famous they go viral, doing pranks on public roads puts both the driver and other travellers at risk.
It was said that the driver was found, and according to traffic rules, the right legal steps were taken. The police also warned that doing pranks on public roads just to get likes online is not okay.
Safety Warning from Officials
Police officers said again that the safety of the public should not be put at risk for the sake of viral material. They told people to carefully follow traffic rules and reminded content creators that being popular online doesn’t mean they can break the law.
A Viral Moment That Changed Things
The Rajinikanth lookalike moment made people happy and laugh online, but it also showed that people are doing more and more dangerous things to get famous on social media. Authorities say this trend should be stopped.
