A video has been circulating on the internet and has been widely shared among netizens because it has touched hearts. The video features a 93-year-old man, accompanied by his wife, visiting a jewellery shop to purchase a mangalsutra for her. However, what won hearts on the internet was the jeweller’s generosity in giving him the mangalsutra for only ₹20.
The jeweller’s kindness to the old couple wins hearts.
Recently, at Gopika Jewellers, an elderly couple walked in together at the shop, hand-in-hand to buy a mangalsutra. The couple browsed for necklaces and finally selected one. Moved by their affectionate bond and humble demeanour, the shopkeeper began a warm conversation with them. When asked how much money they had, the elderly woman pulled out ₹1,120 in cash. The shopkeeper was amused and smilingly said, “So much money?” Thinking this money wasn’t enough, the old man reached into his bag and brought out two bundles full of coins. However, what followed touched the hearts of netizens. The shopkeeper, instead of accepting the full payment, insisted on charging only ₹20 for the mangalsutra. He charged only ₹10 each of them as a symbolic gesture, saying it was a tribute to their love.
