The internet cannot stop laughing after watching a video of a man’s response to a news reporter after he justified his reason for stepping out in the wake of Cyclone Yaas in Odisha on Wednesday. The video, a news clipping of Naxatra News, has gone viral on social media and netizens are in splits.

The Naxatra News reporter, while covering the impact of Yaas in Odisha, spotted a man roaming around an area in the state amid high-speed winds and heavy rains. “Tez hawa chal rahi hai. Toofan aane wala hai, toh aap ghar se kyun nikle hain (There are strong winds as the cyclone is approaching. Why have you stepped out of home)?” the reporter asked the man.

His response was just hilarious as the man said, “Arre aap toh nikle hain na. Aap nikle hain, isliye hum nikle (You have stepped out as well. I stepped out because you did).” To this, the reporter said, “Humlog toh khabar dikha rahe hain na (We are covering news).”

What the man said next was major LOL: "Hum nahi nikle, toh aap kisko dikhayenge (Whom will you feature if we don’t step out)?”

Arun Bothra tweeted the news clipping with the caption, “Such a kind hearted man. Doing so much for the humanity. Respect.”

Cyclone Yaas made its landfall in Odisha on May 26 and battered the coast with strong winds and heavy rainfall on the coastline of Odisha and West Bengal. In videos that went viral, trees, branches, thatched roofs were seen flying as the wind swept at 150 kmph.

Seawater entered several villages at Chanua village in Balasore district while waterlogging was reported from several villages in the area where seawater gushed in, submerging roads and huts near the beaches.
