From the video description it occurred on 20 May 2016 at 8:37 pm in the sky over Agra, state Uttar Pradesh, northern India
The object is too slow for a meteorite, imo.

You haven't been watching many fireball videos then. Shedding as they go is kinda what most of them do.
Mysterious burning object flying in the sky of India
What is this mysterious burning object disintegrating over Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India?
The strange light was observed by baffled residents on May 20, 2016 at 8.37 pm.
Is that another big meteor exploding in thousand incandescent pieces? Well it seems that the weird flying object is disintegrating. However the phenomenon is too long to be a meteor flying in the sky.
Or could it be space junk re-entering Earth’s atmosphere? According to Satview.org, no re-entries have taken place on May 20, 2016. The next re-entry is scheduled for tomorrow, May 22, 2016, at around 9pm (UTC).
Konstantin said:It looks like an meteor/comet to me. Maybe the electro magnetic interaction of the meteor/comet with the upper atmosphere of our planet can in some way alter and modify its speed and direction. If there is a strong electromagnetic field, then probably the speed and direction ( and visual appearance) can be modified so it can look very unusual from our point of view
Laura said:Yes. It also helps to watch some youtube videos about plasma experiments. Also, recall how the plasma balls act/react to the nearness of different objects to the surface of the glass. Charged objects in charged atmospheres can do all kinds of strange things, even change direction and seemingly "target" another object like the plasma filaments move toward your fingers as you approach the plasma ball.
And, what do you suppose was that? ... as you had said, need to see more videos, I am kind of "dumbstruck"? those turnings and "reborn" were between weird and ... I do not even know how to describe it! :PNiall said:There have been lots of these in recent years. Here's one from Brazil in 2014:
