Actress Trolled For G-Wagen Stunt: Responds To Critics With 'Masculinity Fragile' Taunt
Indian actresses and models are often very active on social media platforms like Instagram and Threads. Many of them are successful content creators with huge follower counts. Rashi Singh, who works primarily in Telugu films, is an example. She had recently shared an ' Aura farming' reel, which triggered a huge backlash from within her community. The actress got trolled after the reel exploded. Many even called her 'Chapri' for the stunt she did with the G. This seems to have annoyed Rashi much, causing her to come up with a dedicated post (a carousel) against people who made fun of her.
It shows her sitting on the hood of the very same Mercedes Benz G Wagen (Brabus 800 SuperBlack kitted), wearing the same saree which was seen in the viral video. The SUV has its lights turned on. The carousel's caption reads 'Masculinity so fragile, a reel did the damage. Grow up and shop may be??'- a sharp hit to the 'egoistic' men who made fun of her. The post stirred strong responses from among netizens. The remark did not go smooth on many.
One comment reads 'What do u mean by shop? This Car ain't yours either. So better you shop yourself first instead of showing off someone else's car'. 'Why so serious, sissy?' asked another. Some other comments even tend to demean her for the offensive remarks.
The actual owner of this SUV is unknown at the moment. It likely doesn't belong to the actress herself. She might have rented it out to film the reel or it could belong to someone she knows. The registration plates have been blurred out in the video.
More About Rashi's Aura Farming Video
Rashi has over 1.4 million followers on Instagram. She posted the 'Aura Farming ' reel last week. It now ranks as her most watched video, racking up over 61.5 million views in just 3 days!
In the reel, we see the actress standing on the bonnet of a Mercedes G-wagen with the Brabus 800 SuperBlack kit, dancing to Melly Mike's 'Young Black & Rich'. If you are active on social media, you'd guess by now that this is the same music used in the viral 'Aura farming' reel featuring the Indonesian kid, dancing atop a boat.
The actress was clearly trying to recreate the same with the G-wagen. The SUV, however, was moving at an extremely low speed, so that she could balance herself well. She almost mimicked the Indonesian boy's steps.
The action was performed in a controlled environment. The actress said that they filmed it within her community and under close supervision, and even asked her followers not to attempt the same. Rain and her beautiful saree gave the video a desi flavour.
Viewership soared and Rashi became an internet sensation overnight, just like the Indonesian kid. But, not all comments or viewers were supportive. She faced sharp criticism from netizens. Many made fun of her for pulling off the stunt in a 'rookie' way, while others blamed her for insulting the G-wagen. Some even called out how she was totally ignoring the 'Brabus' part and kept calling it a 'G Wagen'. Some even called her 'Chapri' and 'Gawar' for the act.
Interestingly, this video got more engagement for the vehicle involved than the girl. Makes sense considering it is a G63 AMG with a Brabus 800 SuperBlack kit installed on it- always an eye candy! If you're wondering, this SUV has a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 petrol under its hood. It makes 576 Bhp and 850 Nm of peak torque.
