A viral video captures a groom's wedding procession turning dangerous after a sparkler gun he was holding malfunctioned and exploded. The incident, which occurred while he was on a horse, has sparked widespread social media discussion about the risks of using such pyrotechnics during celebrations.

The increasing usage of sparkler guns at wedding festivities has raised new concerns due to a viral video that has gone popular on social media. A groom is seen riding a horse as part of his wedding procession, or baraat, while clutching two sparkler guns—devices frequently used to generate visual effects—in the video, which was posted by an X user going by the handle @BhanuNand.

What begins as a celebratory moment quickly takes a dangerous turn. In the footage, one of the pyro guns held in the groom’s right hand suddenly malfunctions and explodes. There is a brief period of panic as the surprise explosion seems to strike both the groom and the horse. The event has alarmed spectators about the possible dangers of similar acts, even if the exact degree of any injuries is still unknown.
