Former India captain ‘abducted’ in Viral Video

Gautam Gambhir shared the clip asking if the person in the video getting abducted is Kapil Dev, hoping for the well-being of the 1983 World Cup-winning skipper.

The fans of former India captain Kapil Dev were left worried when they spotted him getting abducted in a video that has now gone viral on social media. On Monday, a video took social media by storm in which a couple of goons could be seen dragging the legendary former all-rounder into a house with his hands tied and mouth covered.

Former India opener Gautam Gambhir also shared the video clip asking if the person in the video getting abducted is Kapil Dev, hoping for the well-being of the 1983 World Cup-winning skipper.

“Anyone else received this clip, too? Hope it’s not actually @therealkapildev and that Kapil Paaji is fine,” Gambhir posted on microblogging site X (formerly Twitter).

The video also created a massive commotion on social media as the netizens were confused about whether it was a BTS video of an advertisement shoot or if the person, whose hands are tied, is Dev himself or his look alike.

Here’s how the netizens reacted:

Suspense looms over the video as it’s yet to be known if Kapil is a part of some ad shoot or if something serious has come up with the former cricketer.

Kapil Dev recently attended the foundation stone laying ceremony of an international cricket stadium in Varanasi. The likes of Sachin Tendulkar, Ravi Shastri, Madan Lal, Sunil Gavaskar, BCCI president Roger Binny, vice-president Rajeev Shukla and secretary Jay Shah also attended the event in Varanasi. PM Narendra Modi laid the foundation of the stadium which will reportedly be ready in 30 months.
