Love transcends all barriers, including age and time; and to grow old with the one you love is a dream that every lover strives to live. Exemplifying this statement is a recent viral video that shows an elderly man, kneeling down to offer his wife a red rose.

While he struggled a bit initially, he managed to get down on one knee with some help from a close one and his wife’s smile was heartening to watch. '44 years of togetherness' read a text insert in the Instagram reel, along with 'Happy Anniversary' to 'Ma and Papa' written in Hindi. The video was shared by their daughter on Instagram, who while sharing the video, asked help for captioning it. She also used hashtags 'strong bond', 'happy together', 'better together', 'always together', 'mom dad', couple goals', 'love is in air,' and 'lucky us' in the caption.

'This is pure love', say netizens
