Amid the Kanwar Yatra processions, two devotees caught attention by turning their motorcycle into a moving Nandi, Lord Shiva’s bull vahana. A video of the unusual ‘Nandi bike’ has gone viral on social media, showing the devotees riding the modified motorcycle during the pilgrimage.
The striking design made the bike resemble Lord Shiva’s sacred vahana and became an eye-catching sight online. The motorcycle appeared to have been extensively modified to recreate the appearance of Nandi, giving an otherwise ordinary bike a distinct makeover.

The video was shared on X with the caption, “India is not for beginners,” leaving social media users intrigued by the unusual modification.
The video surfaced during the annual Kanwar Yatra, when devotees, known as Kanwariyas, travel to sacred sites to collect holy water from the Ganga. They then carry the holy water back and offer it at Shiva temples as part of the pilgrimage.
Social media users have reacted with fascination and humour. Many praised the creativity behind the modification, while others wondered about the practicality of riding such a vehicle.
The Kanwar Yatra sees millions of devotees undertaking the pilgrimage each year.
The video has become one of the most talked-about moments of this year’s Yatra.
