Feeling nostalgic, did we hear? Well, you are not alone. Kevin Koul, a Gurugram-based content creator, loves to dress up like Alladin and pulls a prank. He is often spotted roaming the streets on his “magic carpet” and greeting bystanders. While some love the way Mr Koul carries himself, others wonder how the carpet is moving.

In a video, shared on Reddit, Mr Koul, dressed as the Disney character, is seen riding a skateboard on the streets. He also greets people and picks up ice cream from a store. The clip, which was originally shared in January 2022, has resurfaced on Reddit.

Speaking to the Hindustan Times, Mr Koul said, “I am still figuring out the logistics, but I promise to prank Delhiites for sure. It's going to be a surprise for people.”

He added, “I used to watch fantasy movies, and Aladdin was my favourite character! I even used to play video games themed on this character, which made me want to ride the magic carpet someday. So when I started making reels, I thought why not let my childhood fantasy come true.”
