Kerala man's cinematic toy car video gets a nod of approval from Porsche, Audi
A man from Kerala built a DIY rain set at home to film a toy car, and the result was so cinematic that Porsche and Audi had to stop by to drop a comment.
A man from Kerala turned a simple room into a cinematic rain set, all to shoot a toy car video, and ended up catching the attention of global automobile brands online.
Instagram user Krishna S Pai shared the now-viral clipon his account, giving viewers a behind-the-scenes look at how the illusion was created.
In the video, Krishna was seen lying flat on the floor, carefully positioning his camera on a tripod at a low angle to mimic a dramatic, ground-level shot.
What looked chaotic at first soon started to make sense. Using a spray bottle, he repeatedly spritzed water into the air, creating the effect of heavy rain or a blizzard when captured through the lens. The setup, though minimal, was executed with precision, with lighting, angle, and timing all working together to transform an ordinary space into something far more cinematic.
The video then transitioned to the final result, where a toy car appeared to be parked in the middle of an intense storm, surrounded by what looked like sheets of rain crashing down around it. The illusion was striking, especially considering the simplicity of the tools used.
Krishna captioned the post with a cheeky line: “Made a whole rain scene just in case Porsche is scrolling.” What followed next made the moment even bigger.
Watch the video here:
The reel didn’t just impress viewers, but it caught the eye of major automobile brands as well.
Porsche responded to the video, writing, “That’s some serious scene-building. Respect the effort. There's no way we're scrolling past this.”
Audi also chimed in, commenting, “Proof that even simple tools can create something extraordinary. Beautifully done!”
Their responses became a highlight of the post, with several users pointing out how rare it was for global brands to engage directly with such creative content.
Beyond the brand shout-outs, viewers flooded the comments section with admiration for the ingenuity behind the setup. Several users remarked that the creator had managed to achieve a high-production look using everyday items, calling it both inspiring and impressive.
Others joked that the video had essentially “summoned” top car manufacturers into the comments section, while some praised the dedication and attention to detail that went into crafting the illusion.
The video stood out not for expensive equipment or elaborate setups, but for its clever execution. It also led to several discussions on how compelling visuals didn't always require big budgets, sometimes, all it took was a good idea, a bit of patience, and the willingness to experiment.
