This video is an embedded YouTube video. You can download it via:

youtube-dl "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mvm-HDQrdXs"

Thanks for the response @yan12125. However tested link contains full episode of 30 min but the embedded YouTube link you shared contains only 5 min. of promo.

[yan12125]

On the webpage I see only one 5-min YouTube video. There's a button "Click here to watch full", while it leads me to the original page with the same YouTube video. Could you point out where the full video is?

[nigamankit7]

Video is right there on the Web page - http://www.andtv.com/shows/bhabi-ji-ghar-par-hai/video/bhabi-ji-ghar-par-hain-episode-272-march-15-2016-full-episode.html

Wondering if video is blocked on region level. If possible you may check it via Indian proxy.

Will share the screen shot shortly.

No luck with either mobile browsers or India proxies.

[nigamankit7]

Is there anything else I can share to fix this. Like HTML source or YouTubedl log etc.

Not familiar with the site, but I can confirm that the video on the page is 14 minutes while the YT video is 5 mins (I'm not in India btw).

An excerpt from the source code of this video:

var region = ['in', 'pk', 'bd', 'my', 'np', 'us'];

The full video is available in these regions only. I guess the first one is India and the last one is United States. Sometimes I can watch the full video with a US proxy, while it's not stable enough for me to analyze its network traffic - will try more.

[nigamankit7]

Thanks for pointing that out @yan12125.
in = India
pk = Pakistan
bd = Bangladesh
my = Malaysia
np = Nepal
us = United States
