A viral video of a kind-hearted fast food outlet employee helping a little girl pay for her burger is going viral on social media platforms. The viral video shows the little girl ordering a burger with only Rs 10 in hand at Burger King and the employee kindly pays the rest of the money for the burger as he does not want to make the girl sad.
The man’s heartwarming gesture is winning hearts online and was also appreciated by Burger King. The company also held a felicitation ceremony to honour the manager for his kind gesture.
The video was reportedly captured at the Noida Botanical Garden metro station. As per Burger King, the kind man has been identified as a manager named Dheeraj.
The heart-warming story was shared on Twitter by a man named Aditya Kumar along with a photo of the little girl standing at the counter bare feet waiting for her order. He wrote, the girl had only Rs 10 in hand but wanted to order a Rs 90 burger. However, the man behind the counter could not say no. So, he paid the rest Rs 80 from his pocket and gave the burger to the little girl.
Here is the tweet:
हाथ में दस रुपए लेकिन बर्गर खाने के लिए चाहिए थे 90 रुपए, लेकिन काउंटर के पीछे बैठे व्यक्ति ने मना नहीं किया खुद से 80 रुपए मिलाकर बच्ची को बर्गर दे दिया। ये है #WorldFoodDay2022 पर छोटी सी हैप्पी एंडिंग वाली कहानी।#food pic.twitter.com/J5c19n0RWg

When some people don’t even help their own kin in times of need, this gesture of the man towards the tiny soul is winning the hearts of the netizens. If everyone helped each other without expectation what a better place the earth would be, but it does not seem like it will happen anytime soon.
