Viral Video: A small act of kindness can sometimes change a person’s life in ways no one expects. This is exactly what happened when Hamza Aziz, a nurse and social media influencer in Canada, decided to tip an Indian student named Navneet.
Navneet worked as an Uber delivery driver, trying to make ends meet while living far from his family. One day, he delivered food to Aziz but was the only driver willing to go back to the restaurant to correct a mistaken order. Touched by his honesty and dedication, Aziz gave him a generous tip of C$100 (around ₹6,000) and shared the moment in a video.
What happened next was nothing short of amazing. The video went viral, and people were deeply moved by Navneet’s struggles and dreams. In a later conversation, he revealed his true passion—he wanted to open a barbershop but lacked the financial resources to do so. As luck would have it, an entrepreneur who saw the viral clip stepped forward to sponsor his barber training.

In a heartwarming twist, a second video showed Navneet standing in his very own barbershop, ready to turn his dreams into reality. Aziz even visited him for a haircut, making the moment even more special.

The heartwarming video was posted on Instagram by the handle 'whatmotivatedyou' and quickly captured the internet’s attention. In just four days, it amassed an impressive 4.4 million views, with social media users flooding the comments section with admiration.
One user expressed their appreciation, saying, "What a polite, lovely man." Another commented on his determination, writing, "Hardworking man! What dignity! Saving up to open my salon."

Meanwhile, someone else reflected on the impact of struggles, writing, "Tough times would definitely make you honest… no matter what you’re doing in life!"
