A heartwarming video of a girl tricking her parents into reading her college acceptance letter and their reaction has taken the internet by storm. A Twitter user named Gurjiv Kaur from California broke the news of her acceptance to a prestigious university in a live video. She handed the acceptance letter to her parents and asked them to read a “tongue twister”. However, in reality, it was a confirmation that she had aced her interview and gotten into an optometry school.

In the clip, Gurjiv can be seen handing over the letter and asking them to read it like a tongue twister. As soon as her parents read the letter, they can be seen exclaiming in joy as well as disbelief at the same time. Gurjiv’s father could be heard saying, “Oh my god, this is incredible”. Her mother, on the other hand, said, “What! You just had your interview today,” and added disbelievingly, “You are kidding”. Then her father proudly reads his daughter’s acceptance to the Rosenberg School of Optometry at the University of The Incarnate Word (UIW) in San Antonio, Texas. 

Netizens in awe

Since shared, the clip has gone viral on Twitter and has been viewed over nine million times. It has received tons of congratulatory comments, including one from the university as well. Netizens called Gurjiv’s parents reaction adorable. 

While one user wrote, “So happy for you. All the best,” another added, “Congratulations to you Dear Gurjiv, Comma. This is a amazing achievement your parents are so adorable and sweet and raised an beautiful sweet daughter! They are so proud of you I am too”. “I’m waaaay over in Scotland and I am beaming from ear to ear. That made me so very happy,” wrote third. “this is one of the most sweetest things i’ve ever seen,” said fourth.
