Gurugram, March 14 (IANS) Gurugram’s upscale Golf Course road is becoming a hub for making Instagram reels. In a latest incident, a youth was seen throwing fake currency notes of Rs 500 and Rs 2,000 from a car on the road.

Cops swung into action as soon as the video went viral on social media and tracked the youth, who was seen throwing the fake notes, and the other one, who was driving the car.

The police registered a case under various sections of the IPC at the Sushant Lok police station on Tuesday to start the investigation.

In a complaint, Assistant Sub-Inspector (ASI) Mohd Zahid said that on Tuesday he saw a video uploaded from Instagram account of ‘Joravar Singh Kalsi’ with caption ‘Paise uda Feroz’.

The duo were enacting a scene from the Shahid Kapoor starrer web series ‘Farzi’.
