"Guys, we are in the train toilet and going to the Kumbh mela," she declares, while filming around the toilet and showing herself standing on the commode.
The woman claims that they are surrounded by people outside and chose to travel inside the toilet to avoid being crowded. At one point, she asks her friend not to open the toilet door while joking about the people standing outside.
