The video also includes a disclaimer stating that it is made for ‘entertainment’ purposes only. Hence, the claim made in the post is FALSE.
A reverse image search of the keyframes extracted from the viral video led us to the full video uploaded on the YouTube channel of Ashwani Pandey on 28 April 2025. At the 0:05 second timestamp, a disclaimer appears on the video stating that it is made purely for entertainment purposes.
