Hyderabad: In a refreshing departure from his usual high profile political engagements, Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy recently captured the internet’s attention with a heartwarming video of himself cooking for his young grandson.
The candid clip, which the Chief Minister shared on his official social media accounts, offers a rare glimpse into his personal life. Away from official cameras and political rallies, Reddy is seen standing in his home kitchen, carefully rolling out dough and frying pooris. His three year old grandson, Reyansh, sits quietly on the kitchen counter beside him, watching the entire process with visible excitement.
According to the heartwarming caption accompanying the post, the adorable cooking session was prompted by a specific demand. The toddler reportedly insisted that he would only eat if his grandfather prepared the breakfast himself. Instead of brushing the request aside, the Chief Minister stepped into the kitchen to fulfill the condition.
“How could I say no when my grandson said, ‘Grandpa, I’ll only eat puris if you make them?'” Reddy wrote in his post. Reflecting on the experience, he added, “Beside me was my grandson, a handful of dough in his little hands, laughter filling the kitchen, and a dozen not so perfectly round puris. Amid a busy public life, these few moments spent making puris together with my grandson have become truly precious memories.”
The touching interaction quickly went viral, striking a chord with thousands of social media users. Many viewers praised the grandfather grandson bond and lauded the Chief Minister for carving out quality family time despite his demanding administrative responsibilities. Several commenters noted that the quiet, unforced nature of the video made it incredibly relatable, reminding them of the simple ways grandparents often express their affection through food.
In an era dominated by heavily curated political content, this brief moment of everyday family life has resonated deeply with the public, proving that even those occupying the highest offices cherish the simplest joys of home.
