The same video was posted on YouTube in March 2017 when Gujarat election was not around.
It has been seen by approx 28 Lakh people already
The Newspaper in bananas were wrapped is in South Indian Language so it’s quite likely it’s from South India
You can see good resolution Video posted by Mana Vantalu in March 2017 here –
