"Abhi aau kya? [Should I come now?]" These were among the last words Internet sensation Danish Zehen said to his cousin, minutes before he died in a car crash in the wee hours of Thursday. Thousands of youngsters thronged his family home in Kurla to pay tribute to the rising star, who had 1.2 million followers on Instagram and over 3.7 lakh subscribers on YouTube. Danish was also a contestant on the reality TV series Ace Of Space.

Last call
On Wednesday night, on his way home from a wedding, he received a video call from his cousin, Vajahad Khan. "I had gone to Kuwait four months ago for work, and returned home last night. Around midnight, I made a video call to him. I told him I had come back, and he was so happy," recalls Vajahad.
