'How much for the 10 Rupees Biscuit?' If you're on social media, you've probably encountered this video on Facebook, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, or X. Shadab Jakati, the new sensation from this viral hit, has now ended up in jail due to his latest content. Fortunately, he has since been granted bail by the court.
The accusation against him is that he used a child in his video to create inappropriate content. After this video went viral, social activist Rahul lodged a complaint at the police station, and the case reached the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights. Following the commission's directive, Shadab Jakati was arrested.
From Worker to Social Media Sensation: Jakati's Journey
Shadab Jakati hails from Incholi village in Meerut and was previously a laborer in Saudi Arabia. During that time, he began crafting comedy videos on TikTok. When TikTok was banned, he transitioned to creating content on Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and other platforms. His rustic language, simplicity, comic timing, and catchy dialogues made him famous, amassing millions of followers on social media.
7 Million Followers on Facebook and Instagram
His reel's popularity has made him a recognizable face not only in India but also abroad. His videos gained international popularity, even inspiring major cricketers to create reels based on his comedy skits. Currently, he boasts 4.3 million followers on Facebook and 3 million on Instagram. Shadab Jakati's viral content has taken him to several countries.
The Content That Led to Jail
However, his popularity also caused trouble. A video featuring him with a child and a woman sparked criticism on social media. The dialogues were deemed obscene and inappropriate, prompting Meerut police action. Shadab was arrested but later released on bail, after which he removed the controversial video and publicly apologized.
