Hume toh aata hai pakadna, isiliye pakad liya, but be careful. Very, very important to be careful. Always call professionals, don’t try this (This one came inside our society. This is a rat snake, non-venomous, but we have to be very careful. Sometimes they enter our societies, so it’s important to call professionals. I know a little bit about how to catch them, that’s why I did it, but be careful. It’s very, very important to be cautious. Always call professionals, don’t try this yourself).”
