The recent coverage of Tropical Cyclone Biparjoy approaching the western coast of India turned into a sidesplitting comedy act thanks to an overzealous Hindi news anchor. While cyclonic winds headed towards Gujarat, this anchor’s unique reporting style took the nation by storm, albeit in the funniest way possible. While the viewers eagerly tune in to catch the latest updates on this natural calamity, little did they know they were about to witness a news report that would blow them away with laughter. The anchor, with a dash of imagination and a pinch of theatrics, decided to transport herself right into the heart of the cyclone while being firmly planted in the comfort of the news studio.
In a viral video making rounds on the internet, a journalist from a prominent TV news channel hilariously pretends to be reporting live from Dwarka, Gujarat. The clip shows her comically stepping onto the screen from the studio, holding an umbrella, while a simulated backdrop depicts powerful winds and coastal flooding. Armed with an umbrella and an indomitable spirit, the anchor unleashed a performance of a lifetime.
