Anurag Thakur Viral Video: A brief and unscripted moment from the Lok Sabha during the ongoing Budget Session has unexpectedly turned into a major social media talking point. A 13-second video clip featuring Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Anurag Thakur has gone viral, shifting public attention away from parliamentary debates to a fleeting gesture that has sparked widespread online speculation.
The video shows the Himachal Pradesh MP standing up amid loud sloganeering in the House, seemingly preparing to address the proceedings. As he rises, a belt with a visible “LV” monogram appears briefly. Thakur then sits back down, adjusts his blazer, and stands up again moments later, this time with the belt no longer visible. The entire sequence lasts only a few seconds but has generated intense discussion across social media platforms.
The clip was first shared by social media user @Amockx2022 with the caption “Moye Moye for BJP in Parliament.” It quickly gained traction, amassing hundreds of thousands of views and triggering a flood of reactions, memes, and political commentary. Home Minister Amit Shah is also visible in the background of the video, adding to its visibility and online buzz.

Netizens were quick to speculate about Thakur’s body language, with many questioning whether he appeared uncomfortable because the belt was a luxury Louis Vuitton accessory. Some users suggested he may have tried to conceal it to avoid attention from opposition members, while others argued that the moment was being overinterpreted and was nothing more than a routine adjustment.
Much of the online debate has focused on the perceived cost of the belt. Social media estimates placed its price between ₹80,000 and ₹1 lakh. However, the exact model and price cannot be confirmed, as only part of the logo is visible in the video. According to publicly available information, Louis Vuitton belts in India typically start at around ₹40,000 and can exceed ₹1 lakh for premium designs.
So far, Anurag Thakur has not issued any statement regarding the viral clip, and there has been no official response from the BJP. Political observers note that in the age of instant virality, even minor, non-verbal moments inside Parliament can quickly dominate online discourse, often overshadowing substantive legislative discussions.
While the incident itself was brief, it once again highlights how optics and perception play a powerful role in modern politics. In today’s digital environment, a few seconds of video can travel far beyond the walls of Parliament, turning a small, unscripted moment into a nationwide conversation.
