Social media reaction

The post has garnered thousands of likes and comments, and many users have praised the children's passion for sustainability.

"Just see their confidence. Yes they were given scripts and also rehearsal but no one can take away credit from them. Even adults won't be able to perform with this precision. We need to spread this culture of small - one man business. Let startups do their work but this is what India really needs. Both are complimentary not competitive," one user wrote.

"One of the most delightful posts of the day ! Sincerity with entrepreneurial spirit- that's the goodness of times we seek. May God Bless us with such wonderful little stars," another user said.

A third user just called it "pure motivation".

Meanwhile, some users also urged parents to make sure children enjoy their childhood. "Why to give a burden on a startup or business to kids," said one user.
