- The trip was documented by Arnab on Instagram, highlighting a personal lifelong dream
A heartfelt moment between a grandson and his grandmother has touched thousands online, showing how a simple wish can become a lifelong memory.
An elderly woman's long-awaited dream finally took flight after her grandson fulfilled her wish of travelling on an airplane for the very first time at the age of 84, and the wholesome moment has left the internet emotional.
Arnab, who describes himself as a son, friend, artist and aviator all in one, shared the heartwarming video on his Instagram handle, documenting his grandmother's first-ever flight experience after decades of waiting.
The clip opens with Arnab filming his grandmother as she walks ahead of him at the airport, unaware of how emotional the moment would become online. The text on the video says that his dream took 22 years, but her first flight took 84, setting the tone for the deeply personal milestone.
The video then shows the grandmother slowly making her way up the staircase of an IndiGo aircraft, carefully boarding the plane with quiet excitement. Once seated, she appears completely at ease and is seen casually snacking on a packet of makhanas as the aircraft prepares for take-off.
As the flight lifts into the sky, the grandmother is seen gazing out of the window and quietly taking in the view from above, a moment many viewers describe as incredibly touching.
The video later transitions into a slideshow of snapshots from the journey, where she is seen smiling brightly, posing proudly in front of the aircraft, and sharing cheerful moments with her grandson, including a warm selfie together.
