A viral video capturing an unexpected encounter between a girl and a monkey has taken social media by storm. The clip, originally shared on X by ‘Ghar ke kalesh’ on April 1, has already amassed 1.3 lakh views, leaving viewers both amused and alarmed.
The video features a young woman dressed in a black mesh top and ripped jeans, confidently recording a dance reel next to two long-tailed monkeys. She initially extends a handshake to one of them, and the primate playfully reciprocates. However, the situation takes a sudden turn when the monkey grabs a handful of her hair and refuses to let go.

The girl struggles in visible discomfort, trying to free herself from the monkey’s grip. After a brief tussle, she manages to protect her hair, prompting the monkey to release her. While the video has entertained many, it also serves as a cautionary tale about interacting with monkeys, who are known for their unpredictable behavior.
The location of the incident and the identity of the girl remain unknown, but the clip has reignited discussions on the risks of engaging too closely with wildlife for the sake of social media trends.
