We directly contacted Anil Sharma Samotia in this matter through mail. In response, he said, “Yes this picture is edited, which I made with the help of digital tools. The real mountain is in Thailand, which does not look like Sai Baba.”

A scan of the profile of Cambodia Life, the page that shared this post, shows that the page has 1,156,652 followers.
