A Sikh postman in Queensland, Australia went viral over a thoughtful gesture of kindness that struck a chord with netizens across the world.
Gurpreet Singh, while delivering a package, noticed rain beginning to fall and took the initiative to remove bedsheets hanging on the clothesline for drying. The incident was recorded on homeowner Verrity Wandel's security camera system. The footage shows the postal worker delivering a package and then taking time to carefully remove laundry from the clothesline as rain began to fall.
Wandel shared the surveillance footage on social media platforms, initially seeking to identify the kind-hearted postman to express her gratitude. The video quickly gained traction online, accumulating millions of views across various platforms.
"I was heading home in the car and the heavens opened and I thought, there goes the sheets But when I got home there was nothing on the line. There on the bench out of the rain is sitting my parcel and my 99% dry washing. We head in to check the surveillance system and this is what we find. 1 in a million this guy is so cool. Can't wait till my next delivery and I get to thank him," Wandel wrote in her social media post accompanying the video.
The kind gesture fetched him widespread social media praise and recognition, including acknowledgment from actor Priyanka Chopra.
Following the identification, Wandel posted an update featuring a photograph of herself with Singh, connecting the grateful resident with the thoughtful postman."Beautiful randomness of kindness. Very rare these days," commented one social media user in response to the viral video.
"Heart of Asians. It might be 1 in a million in your country, but it's part of our culture here in Asia. Glad you get to experience this beautiful culture," another viewer remarked.
"Love how you posted it online! Proud of you and the man who was kind! Happy to see this," shared a third commenter.
