In the video, he can be seen motivating the team to work in freezing weather. He shared that the Kashmiri people had suffered so many hardships when they had to leave their homeland and the temperature then must have been less than -10 and -15 degrees. Talking about his own experience he said that it's all about the right attitude and he has gained success only after he kept his attitude right.
In no time, his post was bombarded with reactions from netizens around the world. One of the users wrote, "This is brilliant. You are our modern-day Vivekananda who has united all Indians all around the globe." Another user wrote, "This we can say Maa Sharda was sharing the wisdom through you! Very touching and inspiring! The success of #TheKasmirFiles shows that People already heard that speech, without you saying it to them."
