If there’s one life lesson that I’ve learned and fully agree to after watching Paatal Lok, it is that when a man loves a dog, he is a good man.
In an incident that proves this theory, a selfless home guard in Telangana bravely risked his life to rescue a dog who was stuck in the middle of an overflowing stream.

Mujeeb’s tactic to use a tree branch to balance himself in the fast-flowing currents and using the excavator as a bridge to ease the process was just brilliant:

For a few seconds, Mujeeb was captured comforting the panic-struck doggo who couldn’t figure how to reach out to the home guard as he was tanged in the bushes.

However, Mujeeb along with his team managed to successfully rescue the doggo and got him to stand on the excavator’s head for some support, as Mujeeb stabilised himself.

Mujeeb later brings this grateful furball to the other side as everybody cheers for them. Watch the wholesome video here:
