Co-founder of Clout Chasers Nitin Sequeira, a Bengaluru native, recently declared that he will “run across” the city’s Chinnaswamy Stadium on May 18 during the Indian Premier League game. On that particular day, the Faf du Plessis-led Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and the Ruturaj Gaikwad-led Chennai Super Kings (CSK) would play each other.
The creator said that he had checked out the security arrangements including barricading, and fencing and planned the invasion of the field. In a now-viral video on Instagram, he said, “So I found these two stands with no barricades at all. After a lot of calls and networking and all that stuff, I finally got access to one of those stands. Yeah, that’s how it’s gonna happen. One of these two stands, 18th of May, RCB vs CSK. See you there.”
“I hope we win that day,” he wrote in the caption of the video. Since being shared, the clip has amassed seven million views and two lakh likes on the social media platform.
