In a rare moment, former Indian cricket captain Rahul Dravid, known for his composed demeanor, was involved in a heated exchange with an auto driver in Bengaluru. Rahul Dravid had a minor collision with an auto driver near M Chinnaswamy Stadium, and videos of the incident went viral on social media.
Rahul Dravid is currently spending time in his hometown before beginning his role as the head coach of Rajasthan Royals (RR) in the 2025 Indian Premier League (IPL). Dravid has rejoined the Sanju Samson-led team for the upcoming IPL season and was also actively involved in the IPL 2025 mega auction.
In the viral video captured by a bystander, Rahul Dravid was seen expressing frustration after his car was dented in a minor collision with an auto-rickshaw. The incident occurred on February 4 around 6:30 PM on Cunningham Road when a goods auto suddenly braked, causing Dravid’s car to make contact with it.
After the minor collision, Dravid stepped out of his car to assess the damage and had a discussion with the auto driver, taking down the driver’s contact details and vehicle registration number.

The exact words exchanged remain unclear due to poor audio, but Dravid tried to explain that it wasn’t his fault. Witnesses stated that the auto driver had applied sudden brakes, leaving Dravid with little time to react. The auto driver admitted fault but noted that Dravid could have done more to prevent the crash.
Incident Reignites References to the "Indiranagar Ka Gunda" Campaign
The incident has sparked references to the popular "Indiranagar ka gunda" campaign, a throwback to Dravid's unusually aggressive persona in a past Cred advertisement. Social media users quickly linked the rare public display of Dravid’s anger to the viral ad, drawing parallels between the two.
“It's just a 10 seconds video without clarity as what exactly happened or what exactly happening, how can we decide who is wrong. We know Dravid well and usual auto drivers behavior, but still not fair to decide something without clarity,” one user on X wrote.
“Indiranagar ka gunda will take him to police station. I hope auto driver knows whom he is talking to” another user wrote, citing the famous Cred ad.
