‘Crying over Biriyani is better than crying over people’; an Indian father’s birthday wish has gone viral

We all are quite aware of our dad’s funny side, and a child can never get old enough to face a father’s joke and his sense of humour.

A Twitter user@jstalittleextra, recently shared a screenshot of her WhatsApp chat with her father. The daughter could not stop herself from posting the picture on social media, which went viral within no time. She tweeted the image with the caption, “I don’t deserve my parents.”

The screenshot showed the messages that her father had sent her on her 21st birthday. The conversation read, “Happy Birthday Manu beta(kid). I saw you crying today morning, and I want to say that stop crying over people who don’t deserve you. You are 21 years old, and you should know your worth. People come people go, and you can’t change that. So know your worth and put yourself first.”

Her father also gave her some advice.

He said: “Crying over biryani (a dish with highly seasoned rice, meat and spices) is more worth than crying over people."

Twitter could not stop laughing at this post, and within no time, the Twitterati was flooded with various memes and reactions.

Have a look at some of them:
