Prime Minister Narendra Modi had asked people last week to light candles, lamps, torches and flashlights from mobile phones on Sunday evening at 9 pm for nine minutes to show their unity against fight the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic. Although people observed the #9pm9minute event, there were some who showed their solidarity in over-the-top ways! From firing rounds from a gun to yelling ‘Go Corona, Corona Go’ and Bharat Mata ki Jai, people did all sorts of acts to cast away the virus. But nothing can top this viral video of a man dressed as a ghost and holding a candle.

A viral video posted on Twitter by a user named Noodlehead shows a man donning a white sheet over him and holding a lit candle. As the clip had the haunting Bollywood tune of ‘Gumnaam hai koi’ being played in the background, the man in the white sheet was seen walking back and forth like an old filmy ghost!
