Can I play video on 13 inch screen using Arduino? I am using Ultrasonic sensor, when the person is near to the screen, it plays a video? or if not Arduino what is best and budget friendly controller with big size of screen I can use .
Depends which "Arduino" and what, exactly, you mean by "video".
Probably not a Uno if it's full-motion video.
You'd need one of the (much) higher-powered ones; eg,
Raspberry Pi (or similar) would seem the obvious choice?
Thank you for suggestion but again I unable to find the suitable screen (atleast 10 inch) for the arduino and how to connect that with arduino
Probably because it's not really what most Arduinos are for?
Plenty available for Raspberry Pi et al.

You could get one of the arduino’s with a HDMI output.
But no idea about playing video….
Good point - if it has an HDMI output, that does suggest that it should be able to do video!
I can't see a way to do a parametric search for, say, "Arduinos with HDMI" - but you can search for "HDMI" on arduino.cc:
https://search.arduino.cc/search/?tab=&q=hdmi
and this is one of the top hits:
That is very expensive.
Maybe a pico with this?
Or this:
Maybe you could get videos from a sd card......
Will be hard though.
For both of those:
(my emphasis)
I'm not sure that this is even doing full-motion video - just animations.
Again, this is not the kind of thing that small, cheap Arduinos are good at; something like a Raspberry Pi would be far more appropriate.

I agree 100%.
I think you can display photos with that board though.
They have an example for that.
