The 19-year-old had stopped outside a shop for a cup of tea after visiting a temple when the car came speeding down the road and ploughed into his two-wheeler.
Footage shows him being thrown to the ground as the motorcycle is sent hurtling forwards by the force of the impact.
In a second clip captured from another angle, the bike can be seen crashing into a man sitting on a chair near the tea shop.
The second man suffered severe head injuries and collapsed at the scene, according to local reports.
Bystanders rushed to help him and took him to hospital for treatment, as reported by Need To Know.
