The internet couldn’t stop buzzing after a video of Lalit Modi and Vijay Mallya surfaced, showing the two singing a karaoke duet at what appeared to be a private gathering in London. The clip quickly went viral and light an online storm.

In the video, both men seem relaxed, enjoying a night of music and laughter. But their cheerful demeanor didn’t sit well with many. After all, both Modi and Mallya face serious financial fraud cases in India and are often seen as symbols of white-collar escapees.

“While our legal system chases shadows, they’re singing duets abroad,” one social media user commented, summing up the mood of many Indians who feel justice has been delayed too long.

Lalit Modi and Vijay Mallya’s karaoke duet sparks online storm not just because of who they are, but because of what it represents how the powerful can seemingly avoid accountability, while ordinary citizens are held to stricter standards.

The video may have lasted only a few minutes, but the conversation it has ignited shows no signs of dying down anytime soon.
