As kids, one of the sweetest dreams we hold is to grow up, earn enough, and surprise our parents with something meaningful and valuable on special occasions. It’s the heartfelt wish to return the love they’ve shown us over the years with gifts that speak louder than words. And during festivals like Diwali, this dream feels all the more precious.
In Bengaluru, a young man named Somrat Dutta turned this dream into reality when he surprised his mother with a brand-new iPhone 15. She’d been using a four-year-old Redmi phone that was nearly on its last breath, and he knew it was time for a meaningful upgrade.
He captured the tender moment in a video, where he handed her a beautifully wrapped iPhone. As she carefully peeled back the wrapping, her expression shifted from disbelief to pure joy!

I almost broke into tears!

In another post, he mentioned that the timing of this gift was perfect since his mom was soon headed to Kashmir.

Your gesture brought tears in my eyes.
I gifted my dad a mobile phone recently.
How things change so quickly years ago my dad gifted me my first cell phone. Now I’m able to do that for him.

That’s such a beautiful gesture and a tribute to your love and appreciation for your mom!
Gifting her an iPhone 15 is such a significant upgrade, and no doubt she’ll cherish it, not just for its functionality but for the thought and effort behind it.
Congrats on making that…
