A video of a man using a broom to play badminton has gone viral on social media. It shows a man entering a badminton court with a broom and using it to strike the shuttlecock.
The video was shared last week by Jatin Sharma, also known on Instagram as "Badminton Lovers." In the short clip, a man and a woman are seen playing traditional badminton. Within seconds, another man enters the court and interrupts the game by giving it an unexpected twist. He then goes on to demonstrate his exceptional abilities by using his broom to play the game rather than a conventional badminton racquet. He also manages to score a point towards the end of the clip.
Since being shared, the clip has amassed 3.5 million views and 1.9 lakh likes. "Never judge a book by its cover" reads the text in the video.
