Man gets emotional while dropping daughter at college

The clip shows the woman’s parents travelling in an auto as they came to drop her off at Miranda House College in Delhi. The college was their “dream destination”, she says in the caption. It was her first day so they were just exploring the campus and suddenly she noticed her father getting emotional probably because he was so overwhelmed with happiness.

Preksha in her post wrote, "He (Her father) was so overwhelmed with happiness and was on another level of emotions. The fact that his jigar ka tukda would be living far away from him was a bitter truth too. But those tears told me that all the sacrifices I made, all the hard work I did, and each and everything I did to achieve this dream was all worth it in the end. All I can say is I can do anything to see your smiley faces and sparkling eyes! Thank you mumma papa! I love you".

Celebrities including 'Mismatched' actor Rohit Saraf and Ayush Mehra also commented on the post. "So pure big hugs to all three of you," Mehra wrote. "This is the best video on the internet. Love this so so much. Congratulations!!" said Saraf.
