Searching with keywords ‘swami Vivekanand speech’ on YouTube, we found a video titled: स्वामी विवेकानंद की आत्मकथा | Full Movie | हिंदी | उन्ही के शब्दों में | Vivekananda Ki Atmakatha.

According to the website Advaita Ashrama, the film is based on the autobiographical writings of Swami Vivekananda and attempts to recreate his life through his own words.
So, this proves that the clip is, indeed, a scene from a movie, and not an original clip of Vivekananda’s speech.
