The update came days after the social media personality was admitted to hospital following the crash, which took place while he was livestreaming from his car.

“It feels like a miracle”: Dobhal’s first message

In the post, Dobhal wrote about the emotional and physical ordeal he had gone through.

“Kabhi socha nahi tha ki zinda rahunga jis raastey mai gaya tha waha se aana namunkin tha. Mere liye ye sbb ek miracle se kum nahi hai,” he wrote.

The YouTuber also spoke about uncertainty about the future but said he was grateful for another chance at life.

“Mere liye ye sbb ek miracle se kum nahi hai… Lekin ek naya janam mila hai toh kuch toh socha hoga bhagwaan ne,” he added. Dobhal also confirmed that his condition has improved.

“I am out from ICU and safe for now. Shukriya jo log sath hai aur jin logo ne mere liye pray kiya hai… shyd ye app logo ki prayers thi jiske karan ye janam mila hai,” he wrote.

Crash occurred during livestream

The incident occurred earlier this month while Dobhal was livestreaming while driving his Toyota Fortuner on the Delhi–Meerut Expressway.

During the livestream, the YouTuber appeared distressed and said he felt alone, telling viewers: “Log hi nahi bache hai yaar jisko phone karu… let's go for a final ride.” According to updates shared by his manager Rohit Panday, Dobhal was rushed to hospital and admitted to the ICU following the crash. Panday later said Dobhal was briefly discharged but had to be admitted again when his condition deteriorated during the transfer.

Family dispute before the incident

In the days before the crash, Dobhal had posted a video on his YouTube channel accusing members of his family of mental harassment and opposing his interfaith marriage with his wife Ritika.

The allegations were later contested by his brother Kalam, who said the claims were one-sided and accused Dobhal of exaggerating the dispute for social media attention. Dobhal, who has built a large following through motorcycle and travel videos, has not publicly addressed the family dispute again since the accident.
