Story Of Ola Driver And His Missing Son Has Heartwarming Twist In The End
NDTV
Comedian Aditi Mittal shared the story of her Ola cab driver in a now-viral Twitter thread
Comedian Aditi Mittal's Twitter thread on how her Ola cab driver found his missing son - and his heartwarming gesture afterwards - has struck a chord with Twitter users. In her now-viral Twitter thread, Ms Mittal revealed that she was travelling to an open mic event in Mumbai when she overheard her cab driver's phone conversation. His 3 year old son had been gone for an hour by then. I couldn't fathom how he was still so controlled by then, I would have been hysterical. He insisted that he would drop me to the destination since he needed the fare. I offered to pay the full fare. 1.5 hours later, as I'm heading back home from the open mic, I get a call. It's the drivers wife. They found her son, apparently this three year old criminal had seen a ganpati pandal and had wandered off with the procession, dancing and eating while his parents panicked. "Jab aap phone pe baat kar rahe the, toh maine aapko kisi se naariyal modak maangte hue suna tha, toh maine mrs ko bola ki aapke liye bana de."(I was indeed begging a friend on the phone to send me her mom's handmade nariyal modaks at the start of the ride) A good ride, happy endings, and delicious modaks ???? This is THE motivation we needed for kickstarting our Monday morning, Aditi. Can you also share the CRN of this ride with us via DM? We would love to pass on the compliments to our driver-partner as well ❤️ Mumbai is all kind of ❤️Heartwarming thread to begin the week ???????? https://t.co/RuitbxZCJ6 Read this. Goodness and grace still exists as does a good chuckle when all ends well https://t.co/sozsTs0SVO Such a sweet story. Thank goodness the little munchkin is back home & probably stuffing his mouth with nariyal ke modak!! This is soo overwhelming, mumbai is a city with amazing and incredible people.
"He was calling people, asking 'tum log ne mere bacche ko dekha kya? Woh tum log ke saath hai kya?' (Have you seen my child? Is he with you?)," Aditi Mittal revealed.
In call after call, she could overhear people at the other end answering in the negative. By that time, the cab driver's three-year-old son had been missing for an hour, and his wife was hysterical with fear.
