The video has had more than 5.7 lakh views since it was posted on January 7. The shiny screens of big televisions at glass-panelled stores often attract children who are left to fend for themselves on the streets. While many store owners shoo them away or ignore their presence, a little consideration towards these kids can make the world a better place.
Now, a video of a kind store in-charge is going viral. In the video, the store employee is seen communicating with two children sitting outside the store and looking at a large TV screen. It appears that he lets them pick what they want to watch on YouTube before settling on a cartoon and starting it.
This undated video was posted online by a Twitter user named Gautam Trivedi (@KaptanHindustan). Trivedi wrote, “Store incharge let’s homeless street kids choose what to watch on the display TV every evening.”

Commenting on the post, a Twitter user wrote, “While this is nice, homeless kids as young as that is a big issue … we have failed govt mechanisms… why should such young ones be homeless ? Or in that state”.
People also asked for the store’s address so that they could show their appreciation for the unnamed employee. Echoing this view, a Twitter user wrote, “Always support such business. Important to spread the notion that goodwill does bring business and revenue.”
