In a bizarre attempt to go viral, a woman in Navi Mumbai was caught on camera performing a viral aura farming dance atop a moving Mercedes car. The video shows the woman dangerously swaying and posing while the luxury vehicle cruises through city streets.
This woman’s reckless take on the trend is anything but creative. By choosing to perform on a moving car in the middle of a public road, she not only put herself at risk but also jeopardised the safety of the driver and unsuspecting commuters around her.
Such stunts are not just unlawful but wildly irresponsible. They promote a dangerous culture where online fame is prioritised over public safety.
Authorities Should Take Note
While the video might garner likes, it also calls for immediate action. Traffic authorities must investigate and penalise such risky behaviour to prevent others from attempting similar stunts under the guise of aura farming.
The Aura Farming Trend
The trend gained popularity after a viral clip of Rayyan Arkan Dikha, a 5th-grader from Indonesia, captivated audiences worldwide.
Clad in traditional Teluk Belanga attire and balancing with poise on a narrow racing canoe called Jalur, young Dikha’s display was graceful, rooted in tradition, and performed in a controlled environment.
