A video of a monkey flying a kite has taken Instagram by storm, captivating viewers with a mix of amazement and amusement. Filmed from a low angle, the clip captures the monkey perched on a terrace, expertly gripping the kite string and manoeuvring it with the precision of a human.
What makes the video even more entertaining is the sound of laughter in the background as onlookers capture the unusual spectacle. A text overlay on the video reads, “Ye Banaras hai guru, yaha bandar bhi oatang urate h,” loosely translating to, “This is Banaras, where even monkeys fly kites.”
The video, shared on Instagram, has already garnered 30,000 views and numerous comments. One user joked, “OMG Planet of the Apes begin,” while others flooded the post with laughing emojis.

{{/usCountry}}Rani, however, dislikes being called a monkey and has grown fond of her distinct identity. The name "Rani" was given to her eight years ago, and she has been an inseparable part of Vishwanath’s family ever since. From waking up to eating and sleeping, she shares every aspect of daily life with them, much like any other family member.
Eight years ago, Rani was separated from her group when a troop of monkeys passed through the village. Left stranded and alone, she was rescued by Vishwanath’s wife, who took pity on the helpless animal. What started as a simple act of kindness grew into an incredible bond as Rani settled into her new home.
