Priyanka Chopra recently acknowledged the compassionate act of an Indian-origin postal worker whose thoughtful deed touched thousands online. In a video uploaded by Australian resident Verrity Wandel, the Sikh mailman is seen rescuing her freshly washed clothes from sudden rainfall. Instead of limiting his duty to simply delivering a package, he took the time to collect her laundry, fold the garments, and place them in a secure, dry spot to protect them from damage.
An Unexpected Surprise for the Homeowner
Wandel explained that she had been returning home when heavy showers began, leaving her convinced that her sheets would be ruined. However, upon reaching her house, she found the clothesline empty. Curious, she checked her security cameras and discovered that the postman had stepped in to save her laundry. She described the gesture as one in a million, expressing both surprise and gratitude for his consideration.
"This is 1 in a million. I was on my way home and tge [sic] heavens opened. I thought there goes the sheets. When I got home the line was empty. I had to watch the cameras to what happened. The postie brought my wash in out of the rain," the captin read.
Widespread Appreciation on Social Media
The footage quickly went viral, with users across platforms applauding the worker’s kindness. Among those who noticed was global star Priyanka Chopra, who not only liked the clip but also reshared it on her Instagram story, highlighting the man’s good-hearted nature. Many online viewers praised the small yet powerful act, calling it an example of humanity that deserves recognition.
Linking the Act to Sikh Values
Several commenters emphasized that his behavior reflected the Sikh tradition of Seva, or selfless service. Within Sikhism, Seva is considered an essential principle, symbolizing devotion to humanity as a path to serving the divine. For many, the mailman’s deed illustrated this spiritual commitment to helping others without expectation.
A Reminder of Everyday Kindness
Other users shared their admiration by noting how Sikhs are always among the first to offer aid, regardless of background or faith. They described Sikh temples as places where visitors are warmly welcomed, fed generously, and treated with dignity. Some highlighted how rare such spontaneous kindness feels in modern times and encouraged giving the worker formal recognition for his efforts, stressing that people too often complain rather than acknowledge goodness.
