A reel capturing a heartwarming gesture by a Zomato customer for a delivery agent has gone viral on Instagram, clocking over a million views. In the video, we first see the Zomato order tracking screen, which shows that the delivery agent is 5 minutes away. The customer added text on the video stating that it was raining heavily and they wondered if the order would be delivered at all. They then noticed that it was the delivery partner's birthday that day, thanks to a note by Zomate below the track order screen itself. They wrote that they thought of wishing him (his name is Shaikh).

Next, we see the customer open the door to the Zomato delivery agent and confirm that it's his birthday today. The customer and the people around him (in the house) start singing "Happy Birthday" for him and he smiles widely. He hands over the food package to one of the people, while the Zomato customer gives him a small box as a birthday gift. Everyone shakes his hand as he thanks them.
The caption reads, "Spread happiness by whatever means you can. Thank you @zomato for giving us the opportunity." Take a look at the clip below:
