Janhvi Kapoor strongly reacted to the Vadodara car accident after young law student Rakshit Chaurasia crashed his car into two-wheelers in Gujarat’s Vadodara, killing one woman and injuring several others. Reportedly driving under the influence of alcohol, the accident took place on Thursday night. The woman who died was riding the scooty, while the injured were rushed to the hospital.
On Saturday, taking to her Instagram story, Janhvi 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.”

While speaking to the media, Chaurasia denied being drunk before his car hit a two-wheeler. He stated that he was driving at a speed of 50 km/h when he lost control of the vehicle.
“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,” the law student told ANI.
Chaurasia stated that he did not do any party and went for a Holika Dahan celebration. The accused said he wants to meet the family of the deceased and say sorry, “which is a very small word.”
Eyewitnesses shared that the law student appeared drunk, as he was heard shouting, “Another round,” followed by a girl’s name, “Nikita, Nikita,” before suddenly chanting “Om Namah Shivay.”
Chaurasia’s friend, who was also in the car at the time of the accident, has been identified as Meet Chauhan, the car’s owner. He managed to flee from the scene.
