Deepak Dhanani, the man in the video, apparently recorded it on his mobile phone. Bookies and some criminals are threatening to kill him, he says in the video.
Dhanani himself has gone missing after the video went viral.
"Namaste Narendra Modi saheb, namaste Rajkot city police commissioner saheb. My name is Deepak Jamnadas Dhanani. Bookies and criminals from Rajkot and other cities are threatening to kill me. I am in great trouble," the video shows him saying.
"These are all criminal elements, including one from Ahmedabad whose name is....I have lost a huge amount. But have already paid Rs 5-7 crore, and I have to pay Rs 1.70 crore more but I am left with no money to give him," he says.
Police said they had provided protection to the family. Inspector R R Solanki of Malviyanagar police station in Rajkot said that further action can be taken only after FIR is registered.
"We have deployed policemen at his house to give protection," he added.
