The video was recorded in Waluj village, Solapur district, Maharashtra, where the farmer shares his emotional journey of taking care of his bull, Sonya. After being diagnosed with cancer, the bull had to undergo surgery, resulting in the removal of both eyes. Many people advised the farmer to sell the bull, but he refused, choosing to stand by his beloved animal instead.
The farmer revealed that he has been caring for Sonya for 12 years. The bull was born to their cow, making it a part of their family. He expressed that while others may see Sonya as a burden, he considers the bull his responsibility and companion. His family fully supports his decision to care for the bull, providing it with food, shelter, and love.
Since being uploaded on February 25, the viral video has gained over 1.58 lakh (158,000) views on X. Many users have flooded the comments section, praising the farmer for his kindness. One user wrote, “Divine feeling.” Another said, “God bless you, sir.” A third added, “Got goosebumps! Love you.” A fourth commented, “Only a farmer or a poor person can do such a noble deed. Salute to those who did not let humanity die. Everyone's life is precious, whether it is an animal or a human being.” A fifth wrote, “Tum Bhagwan ke roop ho.”
The heartwarming viral video serves as a reminder that love and compassion transcend species. The farmer’s unwavering care for his bull Sonya is an inspiring example of selfless devotion.
