What could possibly be funnier than your candid photo getting hilariously hijacked? And, that too, by a monkey. That’s exactly what happened to a tourist couple in Jaipur when an unexpected guest decided to steal the limelight. The monkey casually climbed onto the man’s shoulder and photobombed their pictures in the most comical way.
At first, the monkey was seen taking what seemed like a food item from the man behind the camera, but then, he posed like a star, adding to the wholesome moment that was caught on camera and eventually found its way to the Internet. That’s how a surprise cameo turned the otherwise normal shoot into a laugh riot, and social media can’t stop talking about it.

The Viral Monkey Photobomb
In the now-viral clip, the tourists are seen posing for some beautiful, candid photographs while another man stands behind the camera to capture them. Just when things looked perfectly in place, a cheeky monkey appeared out of nowhere and sat comfortably on the man’s shoulder. While the first few photos show the monkey indulging in an act with the person behind the camera, the best part came when he looked right at the camera, unintentionally making himself the star of every picture.
Within seconds, the monkey turned the romantic moment into a rib-tickling scene. The couple also looked comfortable, and their expressions of joy, mixed with amusement, only added to the wholesome moment. TBH, we think the monkey was quite photogenic.
Internet’s Reaction
Within hours of being posted, the video spread like wildfire online. Comment sections were flooded with laughing emojis, red hearts and witty captions. A comment that stood out read, “It’s fun until the monkey snatches the phone and runs away.” The comment came as a playful reminder about monkeys’ mischievous acts, where they often snatch food items or accessories like glares or wallets. On the other hand, the rows of heart emojis proved that people were clearly smitten by the monkey’s unexpectedly cute cameo.
While for the couple, the simple photo session turned into a memory they would never forget, the Internet got its free dose of entertainment that brightened their day, leaving them completely in stitches. And, we are absolutely loving it.
