On Saturday, he livestreamed himself driving at over 150kmph, fighting back tears as he tells his mother he needed love from her and did not get any, before turning deliberately into the median barriers on the highway.

"And I hope... Agle janam aaun mummy, to pyaar de dena bas, pyaar de dena babu. Bahut zaroorat thi pyar ki. (When I return in my next birth, please give me love, mummy. I desperately needed love)," he says.

In the meanwhile, his car met with the accident. However, he escaped with some injuries and was taken to hospital for treatment.
