Hey adhavan_24,
It's expected that an iPhone will get warmer than usual for a few days after you set it up for the first time and/or restore from a backup. Wirelessly charging and using graphics or processor intensive apps like games or high quality video streaming apps can cause it to get warmer than usual, too.
It sounds like you may be combining two of the known reasons your iPhone will get warm (videos and charging) right after setting up a new iPhone and possibly restoring from a backup. This Apple Support article goes into detail explaining expectations. We strongly urge you to carefully read through it.
If it's been several days and your iPhone is still getting warm outside the descriptors in the article, please contact Apple Support for more advanced options. You can connect from the Get Support portal in most countries.
Kindest Regards.
