You should approach the local police/cyber cell and file a complaint. It is notable that if video is being circulated from device to device, then it will be very difficult to stop sharing. If video was uploaded on any website, you can ask the website administrator to block or delete the content. For which they may ask to fulfill certain legal requirements. However, more information is needed for a fruitful advice.

Immediately lodge first information report regarding the same as far as the government services is concerned it depends upon the contents of video. I think you might be able to understand the situation now. First of all you need to lodge a complaint against the person or about the incident concerned with the same
