"For how long will I continue to be of use to you?" Shakeel was heard as saying in the video.

Sarfaraz retorted, stating, "You won't be of any use to me. To begin with, I never instructed you to do anything. I never requested you to make a swap. I swapped with the person I intended to."

Shakeel countered, saying, "You still made the swap, so I was beneficial to you."
