It's not clear but I think exporting video from the camera roll does not guarantee fetching same video in every time. So I copied the video from camera roll to my document folder with url (avurlasset.URL) by [NSFileManager copyItemAtURL:toURL:error:] then it copies the same video file in every time. For now it is my final solution.

In this case you have to use requestAVAssetForVideo not requestExportSessionForVideo

So in your case,

PHVideoRequestOptions *options = [PHVideoRequestOptions new];
options.version = PHVideoRequestOptionsVersionOriginal;

[[PHImageManager defaultManager] requestAVAssetForVideo:asset
                                                options:options
                                          resultHandler:
 ^(AVAsset * _Nullable avasset,
   AVAudioMix * _Nullable audioMix,
   NSDictionary * _Nullable info)
{
     NSError *error;
     AVURLAsset *avurlasset = (AVURLAsset*) avasset;

     // Write to documents folder
     NSURL *fileURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:tmpShareFilePath];
     if ([[NSFileManager defaultManager] copyItemAtURL:avurlasset.URL
                                                 toURL:fileURL
                                                 error:&error]) {
         NSLog(@"Copied correctly");
     }
 }];
