Elderly man's sweet nail-painting gesture for wife during train ride goes viral: ‘This kind of love is rare'
From sharing a quiet cup of tea to reminding each other about medications, growing old in love in real life holds a depth that goes far beyond the dramatic romances often seen in movies. A video of an elderly couple sharing an adorable moment on a moving train is winning hearts on social media. The viral video, shared by Instagram user Rohan R Tamhane, shows a heartwarming moment an elderly man is patiently applying nail polish for his wife. As she gently guides him and holds the nail paint bottle, the man follows her instructions, and carefully paints each nail with red colour. 'In a world rushing by, they sat still—he painting her nails, she is smiling like it's the first time he touched her hand. Love like this doesn't age, it deepens,' the caption read. Watch here: A post shared by Rohan R Tamhane (@iamrohantamhane) The video quickly gained traction, garnering over 13 million views and more than nine lakh likes. A user who turned out to be the daughter-in-law of the couple wrote, 'So sweet, thanku so much for capturing this special moment. They are my in-laws and they are going to attend a family wedding, to Lonavala.' Another user commented, 'A true king raised by a queen and married a princess. Soulmates for many lifetimes.' A third user reacted, 'I can feel a special bond and love between them and really its rare may be 1/100 ..making me so emotional.' In March, a video of an elderly couple, who eloped in their youth, getting married in a traditional ceremony melted hearts on social media. Harshad, a Jain boy, and Mrudu, a Brahmin girl, first crossed paths in school during the 1960s. However, when Mrudu's family strongly objected to their relationship, the young couple made a bold decision. They eloped, leaving behind a message with a friend for her family, 'I am not coming back.'

Viral clip shows elderly couple dancing like no one's watching; melts hearts online
Not all love stories make it to the internet but when they do, some just steal your heart. That's exactly what happened with an elderly couple whose tender dance under a setting sun has left social media swooning. The video, which quickly went viral, captures a beautiful moment: a group of friends singing Atif Aslam 's romantic hit Hona Tha Pyar from the film Bol, while an older couple slowly joins in, dancing with such ease and affection that it instantly struck a chord with viewers. The clip was shared on Instagram by singer Aditya Chauhan, who was part of the impromptu jam session. As his group sang, someone began filming–and thankfully so, because what followed was pure magic. The couple didn't say a word. Their dance was soft, effortless, and so full of love that even strangers paused to watch. It wasn't long before the video hit over 9 million views. 'I hope if love finds me, it's like this,' reads the text over the video–a sentiment echoed in the flood of comments that followed.

Another user shared, 'I met them once in Delhi Metro, they were seriously so much into each other. I really wish this generation can take inspiration from them.' One of the comments appeared to be from their grandchild: 'The couple at the back are my maternal grandparents… BTW I wasn't knowing that you both are so good at dancing… love you both,' the post said. Another summed up the mood perfectly: 'Feeling safer is just a chill beyond comfort. Love reflects. Just like how it felt a smile on our own cheeks watching this.' In another recent incident, a couple who met during the 1960s proved that true love not only endures–it celebrates, even after decades. Harshad, a Jain, met Mrudu, a Brahmin girl, in school and they fell for each other at a time when love marriages were almost unheard of. When Mrudu's family disapproved, they eloped. Now, 64 years later, their family decided to give them something they never had –a wedding celebration worthy of their journey.
