Honey Singh’s nephew Divit Auluck killed in Jalandhar car crash

Jalandhar. Two young men from well-known Jalandhar business families died early on Sunday. Their Volkswagen crashed into a Municipal Corporation tractor-trolley parked on the flyover near Police Lines around 3 am.

The dead are Divit Auluck, 18, son of Dinesh Auluck, who owns the Punjabi music label Speed Records, and Aarav Talwar, 19, son of the owner of Pappi Sweets. Both lived in Seth Hukam Chand Colony.

The two were heading home from a friend’s birthday party with three other friends when the car hit the back of the trolley.

Trolley parked for garbage collection

Baradari police station SHO Sahil Chaudhary said the police were told about the crash at around 3 am. Municipal Corporation sanitation workers were cleaning the flyover at the time. They had parked the tractor-trolley there to load garbage.

The car was going from BMC Chowk towards BSF Chowk when it ran into the trolley. Police have not said whether the trolley had lights or warning signs on it.

Five in the car, two dead

Five young men were in the car. Divit and Aarav died, and the SHO said the other three had already gone home. Sub-inspector Sucha Singh said all five were returning from the birthday party.

Police took both bodies into custody and began looking into the cause of the crash. The SHO said the families of the two young men did not want any police action taken. The bodies were handed over to them.

“Dark decade for me”

Singer Yo Yo Honey Singh confirmed Divit’s death in an Instagram story. He called him his nephew and wrote that losing him was devastating. He tagged Dinesh Auluck and ended with a prayer to Bhole Nath.
