When Pulkit Chitkara, a Delhi-based Instagram content creator, placed a whiskey bottle in the middle of the road for a prank, he didn’t anticipate that people would actually take him seriously. He shared a video of his unexpected experience, captioning it, “There’s so much going on in just one video. Delhi me appka SWAGAT hai.”
Chitkara disguised himself as a regular two-wheeler rider while filming the prank at a flyover intersection. Initially, cars zoomed past the bottle without slowing down or attempting to pick it up. However, a driver of a Maruti Suzuki Swift had a different reaction. The temptation of a drink left on the street proved too alluring for him. Unbeknownst to the driver, Chitkara was watching from across the traffic signal, eager to see if anyone would take the bait.
In the video, Chitkara encouraged the driver to take the bottle and leave, but then unexpectedly shouted for him to return it. Things didn’t go as planned, and the Swift sped away with the bottle in tow. Chitkara later revealed that the whiskey bottle was his own and that he had orchestrated the entire prank. The video also captured another motorist nearly losing balance on their two-wheeler during the chaotic scene.

Reactions to the prank were mixed online. One user commented, “[I am] for these jokes, but who takes accountability if the bottle breaks? Will you pick up the glass shreds or just conveniently close your phone and leave? Think again before your pranks, please.”
