The bar for good boyfriends has officially been raised. Forget grand gestures, one Irish man's dedication to connecting with his partner’s family has left the internet grinning. He made a touching effort to bridge the cultural gap with his Indian girlfriend's mom by trying to speak Hindi while thanking her for a Diwali gift.

The video opens with a text insert that reads, “My Irish boyfriend thanking my Indian mom in Hindi for Diwali parcel.”
Darren, who is recorded speaking to Sanskruti’s mother over a call, starts the conversation by asking, “Kaise ho? (How are you?). He then sweetly says, “Apke parcel mila, sukriya (Received the parcel you sent, thank you.)”
He then switches to English to thank her again and expresses how the gifts are “very good.”
Take a look at the sweet interaction:
How did social media react?
An individual posted, “He is so warm. And cordial.” Another added, “Just to give you a glimpse into how your relationship might be 10-15 years from now, my hubby calls my mom and says, ‘Mummy, besan laadu aani sheera khoop mast’, and then they chat about everything from kandil and rangoli to food and temple visits. Inter-racial relationships are very special because they are a constant adventure for both families. Happy Diwali! I wish you many more Diwalis!”
