According to the Canadian viral video sharers, this was after the tenant had failed to pay his house rent but insisted on not leaving the house, forcing the landlord to take the extreme measure of evicting himself. The video clip was shared on the popular X account that was formerly Twitter; it went by the handle Ghar Ke Kalesh and was captioned: “Kalesh b/w a Desi guy and His landlord over he had fight with landlord cos he was not vacating the house then The landlord came and started moving his stuff out by himself, Brampton Canada.”
Many felt unfortunate on the side of the tenant with much criticism towards the aggression presented by the landlord and wondered whether the whole issue could have been dealt with more amiably. Others portrayed the funny side of cultural differences that may well present the cause of the confrontation.
