Indian YouTuber and Bigg Boss 17 contestant Anurag Dobhal, popularly known online as UK07 Rider, was seriously injured after his high-speed car crashed into a divider while he was streaming live on Instagram.

It remains unclear whether the incident was a tragic accident or a possible suicide attempt.

Dobhal had recently alleged that he was facing harassment from family members over his inter-caste marriage.

According to reports, the influencer suggested during the livestream that it could be his “last video.” The crash reportedly occurred while he was driving at a speed of over 150 kmph on the Delhi–Meerut Expressway.

Clips of the incident have since gone viral on social media.

Authorities are expected to review the footage and other evidence to determine the exact sequence of events, according to a report by India Today.

The incident has sparked widespread concern and reactions from fans and followers online.

An official statement regarding Dobhal’s condition was shared by his friend and manager, Rohit Pandey. As quoted by The Indian Express, Pandey said: “On behalf of Team UK Rider, I, as Anurag Dobhal’s manager, confirm that he is currently under medical observation in hospital. We request that everyone please treat this as the official statement and avoid making repeated calls regarding the situation.”

He further added: “If there are any further updates, we will share them at the appropriate time. Please note that any official update regarding his health or related matters will only be released from my account. Kindly rely only on this source for accurate information and don’t make assumptions. Thank you for your understanding and support.”

Dobhal, who hails from Dehradun, is a popular social media personality with more than seven million subscribers on his YouTube channel. He is widely known for creating motorcycle ride videos, travel vlogs, and automotive reviews, and gained wider recognition after appearing on the reality show Bigg Boss 17.
