Watch: Man 'Chills' On BMW Bonnet As 17-Year-Old Drives It On Busy Mumbai Road

The video captures a man lying on the BMW's bonnet as the teenager drives around the Shivaji Chowk area in Kalyan, Mumbai, on Saturday. Videos of the incident have gone viral.

A man has been arrested in Mumbai after a viral video showed him lying on the bonnet of a moving BMW as it was driven by a 17-year-old boy, police said. The alleged stunt has also landed the teen's father in jail. 

According to an NDTV report, the video captures the man lying on the BMW's bonnet, his back against the windshield, as the teenager drives around the Shivaji Chowk area in Kalyan, Mumbai, on Saturday. Videos recorded by local residents were circulated widely on social media. They show the car eventually coming to a stop and the man leaping off the bonnet.

The man has been identified as Subham Mitalia, 21.

Officials said the car is registered in the name of the minor's father, a government official. "The case has been registered against the official for allowing his underage son to drive without a driving licence," an official said.

The incident comes a week after an allegedly inebriated minor at the wheel of a Porsche hit a two-wheeler in Pune as the speeding car spun out of the driver's control. Two young tech professionals from Madhya Pradesh were killed in the accident.

The case triggered nationwide outrage amid reports that the minor's bail conditions included writing an essay, despite the gravity of the accident. The father of the teen, a major real estate businessman based in Pune, has since been arrested, among others.
