At a time when success on social media is often measured in millions of likes and views, a small and candid moment involving an elderly couple from Delhi has struck a chord with online users.
A short Instagram video showing the couple celebrating just three likes has gone viral, offering a subtle reminder that happiness doesn’t always come from numbers or popularity.
The clip was uploaded on Instagram by @amma_at_65 and was captioned, “3 likes par itne khush hai viral ho gaya to kya hi hoga.”
The account belongs to Sumitra Singh. As mentioned in the profile biography, the family lives in Delhi and originally hails from Uttar Pradesh.
The video opens with an elderly couple standing next to each other, smiling warmly into the camera. Their expressions reflect pride and excitement as they discuss the response to their video. A man standing next to his wife cheerfully says, “Three people liked it.” The woman recording the clip can be heard encouraging them from behind the camera.
It was the couple’s genuine joy and childlike excitement that resonated strongly with viewers and quickly gained admiration on social media.
Here’s how people reacted to the video:
One Instagram user wrote, “Aab aap ke video par roj par karunga.”
Another commented, “Kisi ki Nazar na lage aap donon ko.”
A third user shared: “My heart just melted.”
Another comment read: “Uncle brings more than 3 million rupees a day.”
The video was posted on January 22 and has since surpassed 1.2 million views and more than 9,000 likes.
In a subsequent clip, the elderly man appears even more delighted after learning that the video has surpassed one million views. He smiles broadly and says, “Ye dekho, ek lakh ho gaya.”
Separately, another touching video is attracting attention on Instagram. A woman from Mumbai recently shared a clip of her grandparents visiting the sea for the first time.
In the footage, the elderly couple can be seen slowly entering the water, smiling gently as the waves lap at their feet. The woman is seen wearing an orange saree while the man is dressed in a white dhoti. Their calm and quiet happiness touched many viewers.
The video received an emotional response from Instagram users, with several saying it brought tears to their eyes.
