Viral Video: Delhi Man's Breakfast Invitation At A Stranger's Home In Bengaluru Turns Into A Hearty Encounter
Sometimes, the simplest meals come with the most unexpected stories. In a video that's been winning hearts online, a Delhi-based content creator sets out to experience a slice of local life in Bengaluru by asking a stranger if he could join them for breakfast. Approaching a woman, he says with a smile, 'Namaskar aunty, I wanted to ask, I'm from Delhi and I want to have local food from here. So, is there any way I could have breakfast at your place?'
The video, captioned 'POV: I asked a stranger in Bangalore to invite me for breakfast,' captures the spontaneity of the moment and the warmth with which the stranger responds. What follows is a relaxed, homely meal that reminds us how food can open doors, start conversations and bridge differences.
As the woman pauses to confirm if the Delhi visitor truly wants to join them for breakfast, his face lights up with joy. 'Yeah, yeah, I wanted to have like local, homely food here,' he replies. Moments later, a man appears, and the visitor politely asks, 'Can we come?'
The next scene invites viewers into the couple's dining area. He then introduces himself and his friend to their kind hosts, and the atmosphere quickly shifts into one of relaxed conversation and friendly banter. 'The people are too sweet in Bangalore. Let's see,' he remarks, as the host shows two breakfast plates filled with local favourites.
What's served is a wholesome, homely meal — a purple, dough-like ball, likely ragi mudde or a similar millet-based dish, accompanied by a light-coloured chutney and a portion of aloo sabji. One bite in, and the young guest can't contain his delight. 'Oh my God. It's so good. Thank you so much,' he says.
What makes the moment even more touching is what the elderly host shares next: 'I have been waiting for someone to come. We are happy that we have met a musician today. I want you to excel in whatever you do.'
Before leaving, the guests take a few photos and receive the couple's blessings. The video, captioned 'Divided by languages, united by food,' has resonated with many online, celebrating not just a meal but the quiet magic of hospitality and the simple joy of sharing a table with strangers.

'Last Caveman on Earth' : This 62-year-old lives like it's the Stone Age
Almost everything around us is connected, phones, homes, cars, even watches, and because of this, it's hard to even imagine a life without constant notifications, deadlines, or noise. We wake up to alarms, check emails before brushing our teeth, and measure our days by productivity rather than peace. While technology and city life have brought comfort and convenience, they've also come with their own baggage of stress, anxiety, and a sense of never truly having enough time. But what if someone chose to step away from all of it? Not for a vacation or a social media detox, but for life. While most of us wouldn't consider living without electricity or running water, there are still rare individuals who take up simplicity, silence, and survival in the most raw form. People who find richness in the rhythm of nature instead of the rush of the modern world. One such person is Aliah, a 62-year-old man living in a cave on the remote island of Socotra, Yemen. His story has gone viral because he represents something deeply human, which is choosing freedom from the chaos. This man lives on the rugged coastline of Socotra, Yemen, and has become an internet sensation after travel vlogger Colin shared a video of him on Instagram. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Where he wrote, 'This might be the last Caveman on Earth. Meet Aliah, the 62-year-old caveman of Yemen. He lives on the rocky shores of Socotra, surviving off the sea with nothing but what nature gives him.' In the video, Aliah is seen fishing by hand, walking barefoot over sharp rocks, lighting fires, and sleeping in a cave, just like humans did thousands of years ago. Despite the harsh conditions, he appears content and physically strong. 'His days are measured by the tides and not time. No phone. No electricity. Just the rhythm of wind and water. And still, he smiles like he knows something the rest of us forgot,' Colin adds. The viral video has gained over a million views and sparked a wave of admiration. People online are in awe of Aliah's resilience and peace. One user commented, 'He's richer than most millionaires.' Another said, 'No phones, just pure passion and living in the moment.' Many admired his health and fitness at 62. 'Ok, he should share his dental hygiene routine. Those teeth look way better than I'd expect TBH,' someone joked. Others pointed out the emotional and mental peace such a life may offer. 'No tax, no bills, no anxiety, no overthinking, I bet he's a really happy dude.' Another comment read, 'He's not crazy. He hasn't been affected by Western ideologies,' suggesting that Aliah's peace may come from staying disconnected from modern pressures. Aliah also spoke about his family in the video, revealing that he's lost some of his children over the years. Yet, despite the loss and solitude, he continues to live peacefully in his cave, grateful for what the sea and land provide.
