Out of all the wicked challenges that have taken up internet by storm in the recent years, the healthiest (in the most literal sense) and the most fruitful has to be the latest ‘fitness challenge’ initiated by Union Minister and former professional shooter, Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore.
Rathore literally had the internet asking for more as he shared a video of him doing ‘push-up’ at his office as part of his #HumFitTohIndiaFit challenge, urging other people to share their videos of participating in physical activities and sharing their videos online.
#HumFitTohIndiaFit 🇮🇳🏆Post pictures and videos of how you keep yourself fit and send a #FitnessChallenge to your friends on social media. Here’s my video 😀and I challenge @iHrithik, @imVkohli & @NSaina to join in🥊 pic.twitter.com/pYhRY1lNEm

The minister nominated Hrithik Roshan, Saina Nehwal and Virat Kohli over his Tweet and all three of them took up his challenge to record and share their own fitness videos.

Unfortunately, when it came to Hrithik Roshan, the actor chose ‘cycling’ as his fitness-challenge response and posted a video of himself riding a bicycle – while recording a selfie-video on it.

Obviously, it caught the attention of many people who called out the actor for encouraging people to engage in the ‘unsafe’ practice of using phone or recording/clicking a selfie while being on road.
The constant complaints caught the attention of Mumbai Police’s Twitter handle, who then responded back with a Tweet asking for the location of the clipping.
Please share the location details for us to inform the concerned traffic division.— Mumbai Police (@MumbaiPolice) May 23, 2018

Poor fate or poor judgement?
