Taking to the comment section, people shared their take. “I thought the lease was a seller,” a user said. “Want to leave in the neighbor's house, how much will you give one,” added a second person. “Those who grow old are ‘dhamin’ I guess, there is no poison. Whatever it may be, that man is playing with his life by holding so many snakes in his hands,” added a third netizen.
“If you are a friend to those snakes, you should feel ashamed for playing with those souls like that,” added a fourth person. “These are the snakes of the Sangale Dhaman species. Are they non poisonous?” asked a fifth person. “Oh my god, I have to pick up the way they pick up while washing the wheat,” added a sixth person. “I'm scared to see it,” commented a seventh netizen.
