Pradeep Mehra of Uttarakhand was seen running at midnight with a haversack on in Delhi NCR. Top filmmaker Vinod Kapri was driving when he spotted a young man running and sweating. He thought that it might be a medical emergency and offered him a lift. 

This is PURE GOLD❤️❤️

नोएडा की सड़क पर कल रात 12 बजे मुझे ये लड़का कंधे पर बैग टांगें बहुत तेज़ दौड़ता नज़र आया

मैंने सोचा
किसी परेशानी में होगा , लिफ़्ट देनी चाहिए

बार बार लिफ़्ट का ऑफ़र किया पर इसने मना कर दिया

वजह सुनेंगे तो आपको इस बच्चे से प्यार हो जाएगा ❤️😊 pic.twitter.com/kjBcLS5CQu

“It is my routine. I always run my way back home every day because I do not get time during the day,” he said.

But why was he running? “I want to join the army and am practicing for that,” he said.

With mother ill and elder brother doing night shift, the boy had to rush home to cook food. Kapri offered to host him, but he politely refused. “My brother is doing a night shift. So he can’t cook. I have to cook after work so that he too can eat,” he said.

Some even offered him free coaching to qualify for the army.  

“We wud love to offer him free training at India’s best armed forces training academy @Academy_Minerva @minervapunjabfc any contact details ??” said Ranjit Bajaj, owner of Minerva Academy.

After his video went viral, Pradeep was called to a television studio for the interview.

Vinod Kapri posted a heartwarming message to hail Pradeep for his dedication. “Must show this video to our kids. Pradeep’s story will inspire millions,” he said.
