Delhi Police uses Rohit Sharma’s ‘helmet’ video for road safety awareness

During the ongoing Test series between India and England, team India captain Rohit Sharma advised Sarfaraz Khan to wear a helmet before fielding. He even stopped Kuldeep Yadav from delivering the ball until he put the gear on. The incident took place when Sarfaraz decided to field at the close-in position without wearing a helmet. Delhi Police used this video of Rohit Sharma to raise awareness about road safety.
“Two-wheeler par hero nahi banne ka! Hamesha helmet pehenne ka!” reads the caption to the video shared on Instagram. The video opens to show Rohit Sharma saying, “Aye bhai, zyada hero nahi banne ka idhar, helmet pehen le [Hey brother, don’t try to be a hero here. Wear a helmet].” As the video goes on, someone hands the helmet to Sarfaraz.
