The video was recorded at an elephant enclosure, and the jumbo can be seen encircled by a small boundary. A group of foreigners are also seen near the elephant. The tusker looks peaceful with visitors who are trying to touch its trunk and play with it in the video. The elephant seems calm until a girl takes out her mobile and clicks a photograph of the elephant. While the girl attempted to take a picture, the jumbo got angry and slapped her on the face with its trunk. As the girl moves out of the frame in fear, others also step backwards. In the meantime, the elephant attempts to pick up the smartphone with its trunk.
