The video shared on Instagram is credited to the Instagram handle being_ayaan_7. The text insert on the video reads, “Ye technology Mumbai se bahar nahi jani chahiye [This technology should not go outside Mumbai].” The clip was uploaded with the song Džanum by Teya Dora.

The video opens to show the man standing on the footboard of a crowded train. As the video goes on, he stuck his phone next to the door of the second-class compartment. As the train starts to move, the man realises that a passenger on the opposite platform is filming him.

Watch the video here:

An individual claimed, “Maine ise pehle bhi dekha hai Andheri station pe. Ye roz aise he stunt karta hai [I have seen him before also at Andheri station. He does stunts like this every day].”

“Kaha atka rakha hai mobile. Waha se nahi girega? [Where is the mobile stuck? Won't it fall from there?]” enquired another.

A third commented, “Aapka mobile rakhne ka tarika thoda casual hai [Your way of keeping your phone is a bit casual].”

“Next level,” expressed a third.

A fourth joked, “People before pockets were invented.”

“Dont tell me how, tell me why,” wrote a fifth.
