Breaking News: Lalit Modi Shares Video With Vijay Mallya, Sparks Outrage Over ‘Fugitive’ Remark

A fresh controversy has erupted after IPL founder and former commissioner Lalit Modi shared a video featuring fugitive businessman Vijay Mallya on social media, triggering widespread outrage in India. The video, posted on December 22 and reportedly recorded in London during Vijay Mallya’s birthday celebration, shows Lalit Modi referring to himself and Mallya as “India’s biggest fugitives.” In the viral clip, both men are seen celebrating and laughing, while Lalit Modi’s remarks have drawn sharp criticism from the public. Adding fuel to the fire, Lalit Modi captioned the post saying he was ready to “shake the internet,” particularly for the media, a statement that further intensified the backlash. Soon after the video surfaced, social media platforms were flooded with angry reactions. Many users questioned how two high-profile economic offenders, accused in major financial fraud cases, are able to live freely abroad and openly share such content. The incident has reignited debates around extradition delays and accountability in high-value financial crime cases. Vijay Mallya has been wanted in India for alleged loan defaults worth thousands of crores, while Lalit Modi has also been under investigation for financial irregularities. The video has not only gone viral but has also become a symbol of public frustration over unresolved fugitive cases, once again putting enforcement agencies under scrutiny.
