Social media has the power to make everything possible and a recent viral video is proof of it. A video of an elderly man crying as he is not able to sell food and earn enough to make ends meet has gone viral on social media recently.
The video shows the elderly couple who run a food joint named ‘Baba ka Dhaba’ in front of Hanuman Mandir in Malviya Nagar. Initially, the video was shared by Gaurav Wasan, on his Instagram account @youtubeswadofficial.
“80 year old couple selling best matar paneer. Inhe hamari help ko bahut zarurat he,” Wasan wrote while posting the video.
The video begins with the 80-year-old man named Kanta Prasad crying as he is struggling to earn a living as they are not able to sell the food. He tells that they have been working since 1988.
