Vicky Kaushal, Ammy Virk, Triptii Dimri bring ‘cringe’ back with parody video, leave internet in splits: ‘Multiverse of Kalesh’
Vicky Kaushal, Triptii Dimri, and Amy Virk turn "cringe" into comedy gold with their parody TikTok video. Ayushmann Khurrana humorously dubbed it "Greater Kalesh Colony."

Team Bad Newz, featuring Vicky Kaushal, Triptii Dimri, and Amy Virk, is going all out to promote their upcoming film. They’ve been dancing in malls and riding the Delhi Metro, sampling Moolchand parantha and taking social media by storm. Recently, they upped their game by posting a parody of the infamous “Rider Provider” TikTok clip, known for its cringe content. Shared on Instagram with the caption “Multiverse of Kalesh,” the video had fans in stitches and sparked a wave of hilarious reactions.
For those unfamiliar, the “cringe” video features a girl plotting to poison her boyfriend’s water. Unbeknownst to her, the boyfriend has already poisoned the chocolates he gave her. A third guy, who she plans to be with, sees her and teams up with the boyfriend. They switch the poisoned water, and the girl ends up dead. The two guys walk away, with one spitting out water, as the song “Rider Provider” plays in the background.
