There is a limit for every status update video of 30 seconds so if you have got a video of 1 minute (60 seconds) it would mean you can split it into two parts and then upload it individually.
WhatsApp itself offers the tool to cut the video so that it can fit in properly. You can select the first part of the video to post and then post the video again to select the last part of the video.
