The clip has drawn praise for its powerful message of national unity. In the video, a man, identified by viewers as a “Haryanvi tau,” is seen standing in a field and asking sternly, “Who has come from Maharashtra?

The boy looks visibly nervous. But in a sudden change of tone, the man smiles, pulls him in for a hug, and says, “This is your country. If not you, then who will work here? Do whatever you want. India is your nation.”

The video was shared on social media by the handle @MeghUpdates and has since gone viral. Users from across India have praised the clip for promoting harmony at a time when tensions over language are rising.

In Maharashtra, the Shiv Sena and MNS have taken a strong stand that anyone living in the state must learn Marathi. The recent circulation of videos showing attacks on migrants in Mumbai has sparked sharp reactions from Hindi-speaking states.

Amid this, the video from Haryana has been described by viewers as a much-needed reminder of India's unity in diversity. Some users posted light-hearted comments, while others called the gesture a beautiful message in difficult times.
