A touching video of a Bengaluru husband surprising his wife with her favourite homemade meal has captured the hearts of social media users.

The man, identified as Shivam Jai Prakash, shared a video showing how he cooked Kadhai Paneer for his wife while working from home, hoping to brighten her day after office.

A surprise between meetings

In the video, Shivam explains that his wife usually goes to office three times a week while he mostly works from home.

When their cook arrived and asked what should be prepared for lunch, he messaged his wife to ask what she wanted to eat. She replied that she wanted Kadhai Paneer, her favourite dish.

Instead of asking the cook to prepare it, Shivam quietly decided to make it himself between meetings and work calls.

Sweet reaction wins hearts

The most heartwarming part of the clip shows his wife returning home and tasting the dish.

When asked how it tasted and who made it, she smiled and replied with one word — “Pati.”

That simple answer instantly became viewers’ favourite moment, with many praising the warmth and understanding shared between the couple.

Internet praises small gestures

The video quickly drew appreciation online, with many users saying it beautifully reflected how love is often shown through everyday efforts rather than grand displays.

Several viewers commented that cooking during a busy workday just to make a partner smile was a true sign of care and companionship.

Others said the wife’s immediate recognition of her husband’s cooking made the moment even more special.

Love in everyday moments

The clip has resonated widely for reminding people that relationships often grow stronger through thoughtful gestures, kindness and attention to little details.
