We recently celebrated Diwali, and we have been seeing videos of people celebrating the same festival and posting them on various social media platforms. Some of them tried doing things differently for fame and attention on social media, which got them into trouble. Here, we have one such video of a woman from Pune who is seen bursting crackers while sitting on the bonnet of a moving Mahindra Scorpio Classic.
The video has been shared by Manisha Sain on her Instagram page. The video of the stunt has gone viral on the internet. In this video, we see a girl sitting on the bonnet of a Mahindra Scorpio Classic SUV. Reports mention that the incident occurred in Maharashtra’s Pune and that the girl was performing this dangerous stunt for the sake of popularity on social media.
In the video, we see a firecracker placed on the roof of the Mahindra Scorpio Classic. The cracker was lit, and the girl was sitting on the bonnet of the same car. The SUV was moving on a public road, and another vehicle in front of the Scorpio Classic was recording the video. We see the crackers going up in the air and bursting. Sparks from the cracker were falling all over the place, and there were other road users nearby while this stunt was being performed.

Travelling on the bonnet of a car is extremely dangerous, and we have seen several people perform such stunts in the past. It is not only dangerous but also illegal. The woman was sitting on the bonnet of the car, and if the SUV driver had applied the brakes, the chances of her losing balance and falling off the vehicle would have been very high.
If the SUV didn’t stop in a timely manner, she might even have been crushed under the car. The next danger here is the firecracker itself. It was not fixed on the roof and could easily slide from one place to another.
The chances of the cracker falling off the roof onto the woman sitting on the bonnet or even onto the road were quite high. As mentioned above, this stunt was being done on a public road, and a live cracker falling onto the road is a hazard. It could easily injure anyone passing by.
Netizens have been demanding action against the offenders after the video went viral. The Mahindra Scorpio looks modified, with tinted glasses and LED strobe lights under the bonnet scoop. Many people have tagged authorities like Pune Police under the video and asked them to take action.
This is not the first time we have come across a video like this online. In Uttar Pradesh, such cases are reported quite often, and the police usually trace the owner and issue hefty fines for such stunts. We expect a similar outcome in this case as well. If you really want to perform such stunts for social media, opt for a private location or property where you are not putting the lives of other road users at risk.
