In the video shared by Jadhav, we could see the leopard hiding itself around the bushes on the roadside. The animal initially seemed to be resting there and having a night sleep until the light focused on its location. Soon, it tumbled and made repeated movements to turn itself. The leopard, which was lazing on its back, gradually turned around to take note of the situation and the source of the disturbing light.
