Singer Karan Aujla, who is currently in Mumbai for the India leg of his P-Pop Culture Tour, recently won hearts with a generous gesture. While enjoying an auto-rickshaw ride in the city, the singer discovered that the driver had pending traffic fines. Without hesitation, he asked his team to clear the dues.
Moments later, he learned that another auto driver also had outstanding fines and instructed his team to settle those as well. This heartwarming gesture has been winning hearts left, right and centre.

“We got pulled over. The guy has fines. Rs 17,000 fine,” Aujla says in the video, before asking a member of his team to pay the amount.
The video later shows his team clearing the driver’s dues. Aujla then says, “We got pulled over because the auto driver had some pending fines, and we told the policeman that we’d pay them. So sick, man. I love doing this.”
Pays Another Driver’s Dues Too
Soon after, another auto driver approaches the singer and requests help. “Mera bhi bharwa dijiye na [Please pay mine too],” the driver says. When asked about the amount, he reveals he has a Rs 16,000 fine, adding that even Rs 4,000 or Rs 5,000 would help.

Laughing, Aujla tells him, “Aage se fine nahi karna hai, phir koi aur pay nahi karega (Don’t get fined again, no one else will pay next time). Suddenly, I’m the city’s favourite.”

Another said, “This is the best kind of flex.”
