More than 10 million people watched the video
In the video, Atul is seen standing at a location in Manali and shows the surrounding view to the camera. Far and wide the mountains appear dry and brown, with no natural snow to be seen anywhere. A little snow is seen accumulated at a small place in between, seeing which Atul says that perhaps this snow has been brought from somewhere else and dumped here.
The surprising thing is that in this limited space, tourists are being made to do skiing, photo taking and other snow activities. Atul expresses his displeasure and says, “With so little snow, we are being made to do all the activities, there is nothing here, nor there… we are being fooled.” He says that it is shown to the tourists as if there is snow all around, whereas the reality is completely different from this.
