An Indian techie and content creator has won the hearts of social media users after he surprised his parents with a BMW X1 after convincing them he was only buying a modest scooter. In the video shared on Instagram, Siddharth Bhadauria set the stage by telling his mother that they were going to surprise his father with a new scooter. His mother even warned him that he might get scolded for spending money on a new two-wheeler, unaware that the actual gift was far more valuable.
"I haven't told anyone at home. I told Mom we're getting a scooter for Dad as a gift. Since this morning, mom has told me 2-3 times: ‘Son, you're bringing it, but be ready to get scolded by Dad.' But she doesn't know that we're not talking about 1 or 1.5 lakhs here," Bhadauria says in the video.
Siddharth then led his parents to a parking area and handed the keys to his father. When his father pressed the unlock button on the key fob, the headlights of a BMW X1 flashed. Initially confused, his parents soon realized the luxury SUV was their actual gift, leading to an emotional and joyful reaction.
His father asked, “Who buys a car this expensive?” Bhadauria grinned and replied, "Forget the price; I got it for free. Just sit back and enjoy the ride!” Inside the car, his mother said, "I still can't believe I'm actually sitting in this. I'm serious, son; it doesn't feel real. Oh my god!” His father then added, "Thank you so much for the car."
"They gave me everything; today was my turn," the video was captioned on Instagram.
