A heartwarming video of young Shanku requesting biryani instead of the usual upma at his anganwadi has gone viral, capturing the hearts of social media users. The adorable clip, which quickly gained traction online, eventually caught the attention of Kerala’s Health Minister.

Moved by Shanku’s innocent plea, the minister vowed to review and improve the anganwadi menu, promising to offer a more varied selection of nutritious meals. The viral moment has sparked a broader conversation about the importance of better meal options in government-run childcare programs.
