On March 4, 2026, YouTuber Anurag Dobhal, widely known as UK07 Rider, posted what he called his “last vlog.” In the two-hour video, he opened up about enduring immense pressure and alleged abuse from his family, revealing that he had attempted to end his life. Many of his fans were shocked when they saw this video, as many had only known him as a charismatic young man who was regularly going on motorbike trips through the Himalayas and competing on the reality television show Bigg Boss 17. His personality, along with the fun and adventurous experiences he documented in his vlogs, has won him many loyal fans. But beyond all of the excitement and humour shown throughout his videos lies an individual who has been through a lot of heartache, pain, and family Conflict.
Who is Anurag Dobhal? From Brain Tumor Kid to UK07 Rider Star
Anurag’s journey began as a 14-year-old in Dehradun, India, when he was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Doctors warned that surgery might not succeed, but he survived, turning adversity into strength. Later, despite his love for biking, his family pushed him toward academics.
He launched the UK07 Rider channel on YouTube, quickly gaining over 7 million followers with his mountain rides, pranks, and relatable storytelling. Known affectionately as Babu Bhaiya, he became a household name after finishing as runner-up in Bigg Boss 17 in 2023. His charm and simple approach to content made him widely loved. Anurag also shared his personal life: a fan, Ritika, persistently messaged him for years before they started dating and married in 2025. But even this fairy-tale moment faced challenges from his family.
How family pressure pushed Anurag Dobhal toward suicide
In the vlog, Anurag tearfully described how his life was turned upside down over the past few months. He held his parents, brother Kalam, and sister Shreya responsible for the emotional turmoil he faced.
Just six days before his wedding, his parents allegedly skipped the ceremony, offering no blessings or photos. He claimed they humiliated him in front of relatives and forbade happiness for him or themselves. Kalam reportedly took control of his house, finances, and even his dogs, threatening to expose private matters online. He said Ritika had left him amid this turmoil.
Anurag admitted to multiple suicide attempts, showing screenshots of threats and abusive messages as proof. The video paints a raw picture of the challenges he faced over his inter-caste marriage and family disputes.
The reason UK07 Rider is quitting vlogging after Bigg Boss
