Viral Video: The world might be celebrating the much-awaited Valentine's week, but for young Indian couples, the week of the ‘deadly hide and seek games’ has begun. Celebrating Valentine's days and hanging out in secret, unfortunately, becomes much more common in India for young couples when it comes to those seven romantic days of the year. The ‘reason’, if you may ask, are the troubled people who somehow find ‘people in love’ troubling, especially around Valentine's week. Becoming a prime example of the same, a video of a young couple getting harassed by some villagers surfaced online, which went viral.
The reason behind the said ‘harassment’ was that the love birds were ‘hanging out’ in the ‘open’. The video showed the villagers attacking the boy, while also threatening his partner, for not ‘hanging out’ at a rather crowded place.
The video was shared on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), by the handle ‘Arhant Shelby’. It was then reshared by the handle ‘Ghar ke kalesh’, with the caption, “Kalesh b/w a Young Couple and Villagers over villager's Caught them at an open place.”

The video mostly irked people as they questioned the man’s behaviour with the couple, while the rest cracked jokes about him not having a partner for the same behavioural issues. Most found the entire incident troublesome and uncalled for. The post was shared today and pulled 20K views from people.

Taking to the comment section, people shared their take. “These people are always against couples just because they are single and can't get into a relationship because of their troublesome behaviour with others. This is just disgusting,” a user said. “That man thinks he is doing the right thing by beating up a couple of kids who are trying to live their lives. Just how foolish one has to be,” said another.
“What is wrong with India? What were they even doing? Hanging out is wrong or what?” said another. “The couple was sweet- the boy was trying to keep the girl safe while the girl was standing up for the boy. Cute. But that man surely is not,” said another.
“It clearly shows how frustrated they are because that little guy has a girl and they don't.. envious ppl,” said another. “Tell me it's Bihar. Without telling me,” said another.
