India is waking up to the natural fury in Tamil Nadu, which has been hit by days of incessant rain.
Triggered by a depression in Bay of Bengal, parts of state, especially the coastal districts have been deluged.
A video from Kancheepuram shows what the state is going through. The record rain made the Enathur lake in the district swell and breach on Friday evening causing havoc.
The video below shows people being washed away by the gushing, water while others watch and scream helplessly.
There is no information on where the video was shot and who the victims were.
But two brothers, who had gone to watch the Enathur lake breach, were reportedly washed away. It is not clear if the video is related to the incident.
