Bizarre! Drunk Delhi man lets stranger drive, steal his car, and then forgets he owned it

A man high on liquor meets a stranger, gives him a lift, and then lets him drive the car till the stranger asks him to step out of his own car, and drives away with it. The man, the owner of the car, then takes a metro ride home, and sleeps, waking up the next day to realise what had happened. Reads like a Bollywood comedy script summary? Here is how a Delhi guy pulled this bizarre one.

Hyderabad:In a bizarre turn of events, a 30-year-old man from Delhi got a taste of the ultimate party pooper experience. After a hard day's work, Amit Prakash had big plans to relax in his car near his workplace in Gurugram. Little did he know that fate had a mischievous twist in store for him.

As Amit sat in his car, ready to unwind, a stranger decided to crash the party. Perhaps thinking he could use some company, Amit welcomed the unexpected guest with open arms, or rather, open bottles. They clinked glasses and shared some laughs, blissfully unaware of the impending chaos.

But here comes the plot twist! The stranger, with a sudden burst of audacity, decided it was time to take the steering wheel. He politely asked Amit to step out of his own car. Like a true comedian, Amit complied, completely forgetting he was in his own vehicle. And just like that, the stranger zoomed away, leaving Amit car-less and bewildered at Subhash Chowk.

Now, here's where it gets interesting. With no car to rely on, Amit had to resort to public transportation for his epic journey back home. The metro became his trusty steed, as he embarked on a not-so-glorious adventure to the Huda City Centre station. It wasn't until the next day that Amit pieced together the puzzle of his lost night.

Realizing he had been played like a fiddle, he mustered up the courage to visit the Sector 65 police station and share his wild tale. The police wasted no time in taking action. They charged the car thief under Section 379 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), officially labelling him a "thief extraordinaire."

Amit's complaint highlighted his expensive encounter at the BYOB kiosk, where he generously paid Rs 20,000 for a wine bottle. The shop owner, in a bizarre twist of his own, returned a whopping Rs. 18,000 in cash. Talk about expensive taste! As news of Amit's misadventure spread like wildfire, the Twitterverse couldn't help but indulge in a good chuckle.

Comparisons to classic comedy movies were made, with one user jokingly suggesting that Amit's story belonged in a Kader Khan/Govinda flick. Another user playfully pondered if Amit would receive royalties for inspiring the next Golmaal movie by Rohit Shetty, because, let's be honest, this kind of comedic gold deserves recognition.

The investigation is now in full swing, with the Gurugram police combing through CCTV footage to unmask the elusive stranger. Subhash Boken, the spokesperson for the police, has assured everyone that they will leave no stone unturned in their quest for justice. It's like a real-life detective comedy unfolding before our eyes!
