The power of social media swings between extremes. On most days, it's an inflamed battleground with abuses, trolls, opinions all jostling around in search of relevance. On some rare others, something so significantly and positively polar happens that one can't help but marvel at the wonders of the internet. The latter is what recently happened with actor Kubbra Sait.

Some weeks ago, the Sacred Games star put out an appeal on social media to find a trail back to a primary school teacher she had in Bengaluru in the 1990s. #FindingSirChacko, her campaign (of sorts) was called.

Now, just over a month later on July 21, an overjoyed Sait took to social media once again with news of the accomplishment of her mission. "As soon as I was DM’ed Sir Chacko’s digits, I called him. He sounded the same and I giggled like a 5th grader all over again," she wrote on Instagram, alongside photos with her "favourite teacher."

Kubbra Sait's Reunion Story With Teacher Invokes Nostalgia On Internet

"I remember you being much taller Sir," Sait says her first words were upon being reunited with her teacher. Aboard a simulation unit virtual cockpit flying them around Hong Kong as they cracked open a cold (orange juice) one, student and teacher bonded years later.

Sait's moving story has stirred emotions on the internet, opening the floodgates of nostalgia for several netizens now inspired to relive fond memories from school or spare a few moments to look up teachers, professors, gurus, educators who touched their lives and rekindle gratitude for them.

"One of the nicest, kindest, most beautiful people," Sait called her teacher, in her appeal video first posted on June 16. "I've always been so grateful for him just to have existed at that time in my life because I came from a place of zero confidence and he just picked me up."

Lucky are those who, like Sait, have had their own Sir Chackos in life - to guide them, to teach them, but most importantly, to remind them of what they are worth.
