Pilot daughter touching her father’s feet before flying has touched netizens’ hearts and gone viral for all the right reasons. The video, which was shared on Instagram, shows a pilot’s daughter requesting blessings from his father and hugging him before flying off. The video’s text overlay reads “His happy tears,” with a benediction and a heart emoji.

“Pilot daughter flying her dad. His happy tears, blessings before we take off. I never leave my home without my parents’ blessings, sometimes I fly early in the morning, leave home at 3-4 am when my parents are in deep sleep, though leaving home without touching their feet is incomplete,” wrote Capt. Krutadnya Hale while sharing a video on Instagram.

Capt. Krutadnya Hale waves to the camera as the film begins before meeting his father aboard the plane. As the video progresses, she kneels to touch his feet and then hugs him, leaving her father visibly moved.
