In this era of social media chaos, reels and trends, sometimes such stories come to the fore which deepen our faith in humanity, relationships and true dedication. One such heart-touching video is going viral on the internet these days, seeing which no one is able to control their emotions. This story is not of any rich industrialist or famous personality, but of an ordinary vegetable seller who earns his living by honest sweat at a roadside cart. His best friend is no more in this world, but the duty he has performed after his friend’s departure has written a new definition of true friendship. Even today, instead of leaving your deceased partner’s family destitute, considering them as your family and standing as a shield in their every small and big need has become a rare example in the society. From the streets of Lucknow’s Hazratganj and the old city, social media users across the country are getting emotional after watching this video and are saluting the spirit of this vegetable vendor.
According to the story revealed in the viral clip, both the friends used to share happiness and sorrow together for years and used to work hard to keep the stove of their respective houses lit. Suddenly one day his closest friend died untimely due to illness or accident. After the departure of the sole earning head of the family, a mountain of sorrow fell upon the family. The future was bleak in front of the small children and the helpless wife. At such a critical juncture, when even relatives and neighbors often change their ways, this vegetable vendor came forward and held the hands of his friend’s family. He resolved in his mind that as long as he had breath in his body and the strength to work hard in his hands, he would not let the stove in his late friend’s house go out.
Whatever this vegetable seller earns from his hard day’s hard work, he regularly sets aside a part of it for the maintenance of his friend’s family. From the provision of ration and water to the expenses of children’s school books, copies, fees and medicines, he fulfills every need considering it as his primary responsibility. Whenever he returns from his shop or market, he never forgets to take fruits, vegetables or sweets for his friend’s children. To reduce the sorrow of not having a father over his children, he often spends time with them, takes care of their studies and gives them the affection of a parent. In this selfless service of his, there is neither any pretense nor any sense of favor, but only unwavering loyalty towards his friend.
This entire incident was captured by a passerby or a local person on his camera and shared on social media, after which the video spread like wildfire on various platforms – Instagram, YouTube and Facebook. In the video, when the vegetable seller is asked about this sacrifice and dedication, he says with utmost simplicity and moist eyes, ‘What if my friend leaves, his family is my family. If I don’t stand with him today, how will I go up and make eye contact with my brother? These few words coming out of his tongue give goosebumps to the listener. Commenting on the video, lakhs of users are saying that in this era, only lucky people get such friends. Many people wrote that wealth is not measured by wealth but by such a big heart.
