He reflected further, sharing, “Few days ago, my parents took their first-ever flight. As they were landing in the UK, my mind went back to my school days in village in Telangana, India.”Reminiscing about his humble beginnings, he added, “I remember wearing trousers with patches on them. I remember carrying my books in a school bag made from a used fertiliser sack. For much of my life, we didn’t even have a proper house. And now, here they are. In my home.”Calling it a deeply personal milestone, Sanjeeva wrote, “This isn’t the biggest achievement. This isn’t about buying a house. It is all about this moment.” He also revealed how “his mother still uses her thumbprint as a signature and his father barely signs his name in Telugu.”He ended his note on a powerful thought — “From that situation to a world where their son could bring them across continents.”The video soon went viral, touching hearts across the internet. Emotional comments flooded in — one person wrote, “You won,” while another described it as the “best feeling in the world.” A third user added, “You should be proud of yourself. It’s such a beautiful feeling to be able to do this for your parents!”
