The Twitch streamer posed in front of Mumbai's icon, the Gateway of India. He's brimming with excitement, high-fiving supporters who are startled since his visit was kept secret. And do you know why he's here?

“I am here because of Virat Kohli,” he mentions the 34-year-old Indian cricketer, “I want to see India beat Pakistan in the World Cup match tomorrow! I will be there at the stadium. I don’t follow cricket back home, but I follow Kohli. I want to meet him, and I am also excited to meet the Tunak Tunak guy (Daler Mehndi). I am just very excited bruh!”

His second-greatest social media fan base is from India, and he is well aware of this. White Rivers Media is hosting him here. "Everyone has been telling me to come to India, so here I am." I've come to learn more about India. India has this vitality that I can't wait to see. "I'm bringing mine out as well, and I can't wait for the two to mix," he says, bursting into a laugh. His enthusiasm is contagious.

This isn't the first time Speed (as his followers refer to him) has manifested meeting one of his favourite athletes. This time, he's wearing it on his t-shirt before abruptly changing into an Indian jersey with Virat's name on the back'.

His approach to life is what inspired his name: “Yes, my stuff goes viral, but I don’t have time to really think about it, life moves with so much speed. It’s an amazing feeling, I feel blessed to wake up each day. You care about those people, and they in turn care about you, it’s like a brother-sister thing. That’s what keeps me going. They don’t even know my real name (Darren Jason Watkins Jr.), they just like calling me speed, it has stuck. People ask me about the secret behind my energy, but it’s just always been there like this!”
