A slight burnt smell is coming from the travel adapter port, after charging it for a while. And if I shake my teavwl adapter it feels like something is moving inside. Is it normal?

My father's charger, does not have this burnt smell or something moving inside on shaking. 

Please suggest me what to do. 

Model: 25W Fast Charger

Don't use it for 1 or 2 days. Then use it and smell again. If still problem exist and if it is under warrenty, go to samsung care and they will replace your charger with new one.

Did not use the charger for 3 days, but when used again, it still had the issue. Slight burnt smell coming out. I took this to samsung care, they said it is ok. But I am having trust issues because of the persisting smell. Bought this one back in 2021.

Have you tried the same charger in another plug of another room?

Yes, I tried different outlets. Initially, it does not smell, but maybe after 30 mins when the adapter becomes a bit warm, then the smell comes out.

Go to service center and tell them to charge your phone with your adapter about 30 minutes. Observe with the care people
