People usually shift from their parents house to other locations in search of jobs or to pursue studies. Sometimes, they move abroad for the same. No matter how much people boast of having privacy and living independently, it requires effort to manage everything on your own while achieving your goals. And it is not as easy as it seems. On top of that, no ghar ka khaana. But when your parents visit your place, naturally, you feel comforted by their presence.

Netizens are loving this heartwarming clip:

According to the Humans of Bombay, this moment happened before her graduation. Her father even attended the convocation ceremony.

Then, 2 weeks ago, I was at work & saw a customer who looked just like Papa. For a few seconds, I was stunned at the resemblance, & then it hit me. It was Papa! I was so overwhelmed that I broke down. He had made it to my convocation! It was the best moment of my life...” reads an excerpt from her quote.
