After popping the balloons, the man, who has been identified as Raju Bhai by the cameraperson, asks the child his age, to which the child replies that he is 12. He then asks how much the balloons were worth. The child says they were worth 1000 <em>taka<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The man subsequently takes out a 1000-taka note, hands it to the child, and asks him to go and play. He also urges the child to focus on his studies instead of selling balloons for a living.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/watch\/?v=643054192233316<\/p>\n<p>The conversation took place in Bangla, and the dialect indicated that it was from Bangladesh. While the word taka in Bangla can colloquially refer to Indian rupees, the currency shown in the video cannot be Indian, as Rs 1,000 notes notes are no longer in circulation. Moreover, the 1000-taka note visible in the video matches Bangladeshi currency.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-309676 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2026\/01\/Keyframe-from-longer-video.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"620\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2026\/01\/Keyframe-from-longer-video.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2026\/01\/Keyframe-from-longer-video-300x155.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2026\/01\/Keyframe-from-longer-video-1024x529.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2026\/01\/Keyframe-from-longer-video-768x397.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We also found a YouTube channel named <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/shorts\/PLh3jBe27pc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FOODBF<\/a>, which posted a clip of the same incident on January 13.
