The video was a compilation of the AI-generated images of Dwarka from ancient times. The images showed an old but beautiful Dwarka. The people in the images were all dressed in clothes from an old era. Some were also seen in the guard's uniform as the images showed the era when kingdoms had armies with heavy armor.

Sanatan is best no doubt,” joined a third viewer. “There certainly were not many Europeans in Dwarka! But sick creation bro, the diya image looks awesome,” lauded a fourth netizen. “If the city Dwarka is so beautiful then imagine how beautiful would Lord Krishna and Radha be,” said a fifth.
