Bollywood actress, Janhvi Kapoor has reacted strongly to the shocking Vadodara car crash that left one woman dead and four others seriously injured. The incident, which occurred late in the night of March 14, 2025, in Karelibaug, has since triggered widespread outrage over reckless driving and road safety.
Janhvi Kapoor is often seen speaking out on social matters. The same happened recently when the actress expressed her strong reaction to the horrifying car crash incident that shook the internet. On March 15, 2025, taking to her Instagram Stories, Janhvi expressed her anger over the whole event. Sharing a video of the incident, Janhvi added her own thoughts on it and wrote:
“This is appalling and enraging. Sick to my stomach about anyone thinking this kind of behaviour is something they can get away with intoxicated or not.”
On March 14, 2025, things took a dark turn when a 20-year-old law student named Rakshit Chaurasiya allegedly lost control of a speeding car and rammed into five pedestrians. The impact killed a woman and left four others critically injured. Eyewitnesses claimed Chaurasiya was driving at 120 km/h and appeared intoxicated after the crash. Videos from the incident that surfaced on the internet captured Rakshit yelling ‘another round’ repeatedly, after coming out of the car.
Later, the accused, Rakshit Chaurasia was questioned about the incident by the media. Speaking to the media, Chaurasiya denied being under the influence of alcohol. He blamed a pothole and an airbag deployment for the loss of control. In an interview with ANI, Chaurasiya was quoted as saying:
"We were going ahead of the scooty, we were turning right and there was a pothole on the road. There was a scooty and a car while we were turning right... The car slightly touched the other vehicle and the airbag opened suddenly, our vision was hampered and the car went out of control. We were going at 50 km/hour. There were no people at that time, just a scooter and a car...I had no idea. I did not do any party, I went for Holika Dahan and was not drunk... Today, I was told that one woman has died and a few have sustained injuries. I want to meet the family of the victims, it is my fault and whatever they want that should happen."
Despite Rakshit’s claims, eyewitnesses who were present at the scene told a different story. Some of the onlookers claimed that the accused was looking disoriented and even shouted names and phrases before being detained by bystanders. His medical test results are still awaited.
Janhvi Kapoor’s strong reaction to the incident has reflected a growing demand for accountability and change, especially given the rising number of street accidents happening in recent times. Meanwhile, the actress is busy on her professional front, filming Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari alongside Varun Dhawan, and Param Sundari with Sidharth Malhotra is in the pipeline.
