The Internet is a mind-blowing environment! People would be split about what toppings should be on a pizza one minute, and then come together to assist a cause the next. The internet’s power is mind-boggling. We’ve discovered one such story that will both humble and inspire you! A food blogger chose to tell the tale of a Delhi Street seller, and the now-viral video has brought millions of Indians together online. Not only that, but the narrative has made its way to Mumbai, where it has even won the backing of Parineeti Chopra, a well-known Bollywood actress! Are you curious as to what the video is about?
We observe an 85-year-old guy selling chikki and gajak on foot, with only a basket on his head, in the video. While selling cold goodies, the elderly guy shivers, revealing his feeble and weak state. Despite his condition, he continues to sell his goods throughout the winter. The guy spends his days around Delhi’s Nehru Place, attempting to sell chikki and gajak for only INR 10. Instagram food blogger @thefoodiehat posted the video. He wanted to get the word out about the old man’s story so that people would buy the snacks he was peddling. The video received 4.3 million views and 533 thousand likes in his try!
Here are some of the responses to the video:
“Yrrr badi store pr jane se acha h ki inse bhi kuch khrid lena chye taki Inka bhi ghar chl ske” (It is preferable to buy from them rather than a large store) “Hats off, please assist such lovely folks”
“God bless him” and “God grant him eternal peace” are two phrases that come to mind.
People are banding together on the internet and asking others to buy from him as a show of support. Parineeti Chopra lent her support to the viral video by sharing a clip from her own journey. She is a writer “My Delhi-based pals. He’s now shopping in Nehru Place Market. Please locate him and assist him in any way you can!”
