‘This is yours, dad’: Son fulfills man’s 14-year-old dream to own a Royal Enfield: emotional video goes viral

Kannur: Pradeep was left stunned when his son handed over the key to a brand-new Royal Enfield. “Why are you giving me the key?” he asked, confused. After all, the bike belonged to his son, Ashwin.

For a moment, Pradeep assumed the vehicle might be for his other son, Adarsh and his thoughts came up loud as his words in a flow. But when Ashwin said ‘this is for you dad’, the moment made his heart overwhelm with happiness and eyes filled in tears. After taking the bike for a ride, when he was asked if he’d like to exchange it, he replied, “this is more than enough.”

The entire moment has now gone viral on Instagram. Ashwin shared the video with a red heart: “14 years ago, he told me he wanted to buy a Bullet. He had chances over the years, but he never did. Maybe he just never put himself first. Today, I gave him the one thing he always wanted but never got for himself.’’

This is for you, Acha

The reel has since crossed 9.4 million views and received over 1.2 million reactions.

Many users commented that they were inspired to do such a thing for their father. Some shared the regret of never getting the chance to fulfill such dreams for their loved ones. Others applauded Ashwin for giving one of the most meaningful gifts to his father.

A large number of comments also reflected on how parents often set aside their own wishes for the sake of their children, and how acts like these are a beautiful way of giving back. Pradeep and his family reside in Thottada, Kannur.
