True Bollywood Style Chase in London

Aug 03, 2021

Not often a stranger comes looking for you when you lose something valuable like a wallet. But for one Rahul in London, things went all Bollywood style when he lost his wallet with all his credit cards. Ghazi Taimoor, a Good Samaritan from Lahore who lives in the city, came across the wallet, his discovery went to a heartwarming hunt to trace its owner, and this filmy story is winning the internet.

Taimoor, from London’s Shoreditch neighbourhood, found the brown wallet on the street. He shared a picture on Twitter, announcing his hunt for its owner and promising to keep the netizens informed.

“Name on the bank card suggests the wallet belongs to a Rahul R******. Time to HUNT RAHUL DOWN.”

He started his hunt by trying to find Rahul on various social media platforms, but it was a dead end. He then thought of using the professional networking platform, LinkedIn, to try out his luck and came across three profiles.

He then tried to look for Rahul’s office address. Was he successful? Well, he wrote: “Found the address on their Annual accounts filed on Companies House. I’m one step closer to Rahul. Head office in Shoreditch.”

This is where things got very interesting. In his Twitter posts now, a delighted Taimoor was now using Bollywood references, starting with, you guessed it, the industry’s most popular Rahul: Shah Rukh Khan.

Finally after all the efforts, the hunt ended with Rahul in tears upon meeting the good Samaritan. “We found Rahul. Finance Manager. He’s in shock. Tears in his eyes,” he tweeted, sharing an image of the brown wallet’s owner.

Twitter people were hooked to this story, and a lot of people ended up thanking Taimoor for going out of his way to return the wallet to Rahul.

Would you ever do this?
