'Could Have Stayed In Mumbai': US Influencer Mocks Indian Man's Death In Canada, Sparks Row

A controversy has erupted over American influencer Andrew Branca's hateful remark over the death of Prashant Sreekumar, an Indian-origin man who died in Canada after being left unattended at a hospital for more than eight hours. Branca mocked Sreekumar's death, calling him “another Indian invader of Canada."

Sreekumar was admitted to Grey Nuns Community Hospital in Edmonton on December 22 after he experienced severe chest pain at work. His family said hospital staff, despite his condition, told them ECG results showed no major problem and asked them to wait. He was given Tylenol, but his blood pressure continued to rise. Although nurses tried to revive him, he later died.

— Andrew Branca Show (@TheBrancaShow) December 26, 2025

In a post responding to the news, Branca added, “I note that she and her husband could have easily avoided the shitty Canadian healthcare by staying in Mumbai and enjoying the shitty Indian healthcare," sharing a graph on net immigration to Canada from 1952 to 2025 without citing a source.

Branca's Anti-India Posts

Branca, whose X profile describes him as an attorney “providing pro-America, pro-Constitution, pro-Western civilisation political and legal analysis," has repeatedly posted anti-India content. In the past, he has called Indians “retards" and “third-world," described Indian food as “disgusting," and said, “America is for Americans."

He also wrote, “You, an Indian national, fled the shit hole of third-world India to live in first-world Canada. I'm thinking that any culture that drives tens of millions of its nationals from its third-world borders to go live in first-world nations has little to brag about," “Indian migration is a societal herpes of filth and trash and human faeces they wish to bring to America," he said in a separate post.

Internet Slams Branca For Mocking Sreekumar's Death

His latest remark regarding Sreekumar's death has sparked widespread outrage online. One X user said, “A man died and all you can think of is hate and dancing on his grave. You're a despicable, disgusting excuse of a man."

Another wrote, “Shame on you for mocking dead people… Karma will make you pay."

“Building a following on hate? You seem too old for such desperate tactics. If this is just a money grab, don't bother. You'll run out of time before you ever see the payoff," a third comment read.

“Im not Indian, but that's such a low blow. You ought to do some self reflecting," a fourth user stated.
