Social media presents us with a myriad of problems and causes for concern. Sometimes, even a brief stint on these platforms can leave us feeling anxious or filled with anger. Nevertheless, amidst the drawbacks, social media also has the power to provide moments of joy and allow us to appreciate the kindness of our fellow human beings. One recent incident that is warming hearts online revolves around a Zomato food delivery executive. Karan Apte shared a screenshot on Facebook that is capturing attention and spreading smiles. In his heartfelt post, he announced, “Today’s my birthday. Bought a new shirt and distributed chocolates with every order I delivered in Zomato.”
The post gained traction on the Facebook page ‘Indians on Internet 2.0,’ accompanied by a tag to the food delivery platform. The caption of the post read, “Zomato send him bday gift.”
Karan’s heartfelt gesture quickly went viral, touching the hearts of many. Numerous Facebook users were deeply moved by his act of kindness and made sure to tag the company to bring it to their attention. Here are a few of the reactions expressed by these individuals:
“Great work, bro!”
“Zomato, do something for him.”
“Zomato, he surely deserves a gift.”
“May god bless you with everything, brother. Happy birthday to you.”
“Zomato, I hope you encourage him.”
“Zomato, please treat him.. he has done the best.. please do it … he will be happy; please check.”
As fate would have it, Zomato did indeed pay heed to these appeals. Just a few days later, Karan took to his personal Facebook page to share a delightful photo of a mouthwatering cake. In his post, he expressed his gratitude and revealed that it was a special gift sent by his employers. Feast your eyes on the delightful image below:
