What FACTLY found
The viral video is a scripted one made by blogger Muklesur Bhaijaan, who often posts similar videos on his social media. His bio revealed that he shares riding vlogs and scripted content. We found another video on his channel featuring the same elderly man carrying eggs on a bicycle and being harassed by young men. The viral video was also shared on his Facebook page with a caption stating it is a short film, and that it is scripted.
