Renowned music artist Yo Yo Honey Singh abruptly paused his ongoing commitments in Dubai to travel to Jalandhar, Punjab, following the tragic death of his nephew Divit Aulakh in a fatal roadway collision. Upon arriving at the residence of the mourning family, the rapper was visibly shaken by the loss. He stepped out of his vehicle and immediately moved toward Dinesh Aulakh, embracing him tightly as both broke down in tears. During this period of intense grief, he remained beside the bereaved family members to offer comfort and personal support.
A Fond Childhood Memory Shared in Tribute
Honouring the memory of the young family member, the musician took to social media to share an old photograph from Divit's early childhood. The nostalgic snapshot captured the child playfully gripping the artist's arm while suspended mid-air. Accompanying the emotional picture was a heartfelt tribute where he wrote, 'RIP. Sadda puttar.' The brief message captured the family's profound sorrow and the deep personal bond shared with the teenager.
Speeding Vehicle Collides With Stationary Municipal Trolley
The fatal crash occurred in the early morning hours of Sunday, 1 November 2026, in Jalandhar. Police officials reported that 18-year-old Divit was returning home from a birthday gathering inside a Volkswagen Jetta along with friends. Around 3 am, while traversing a flyover situated near the Police Lines vicinity, their car struck a parked municipal corporation tractor-trolley. Investigators noted that the automobile was traveling at high speed prior to slamming into the stationary municipal equipment. The impact was severe enough to claim the lives of both Divit and his 19-year-old friend Aarav Talwar instantly at the scene. Authorities are currently reviewing all technical details and physical evidence to establish the exact sequence of events leading to the collision.
