Talent sometimes is visible while sometimes it takes a eureka moment or what we say, serendipity for it to present itself.

Just a few days back, a video of a woman at a West Bengal railway station went viral where she was singing the song Ek Pyar Ka Naghma Hai from the 1972 movie Shor, originally rendered by melody queen Lata Mangeshkar.

Now, a Zomato delivery boy has emerged out of the oblivion with his soulful rendition of the popular Bollywood number Gori Tera Gaon Bada Pyara from the 1976 movie Chitchor.

Pranjit Haloi, the delivery boy, has become the internet sensation as his video went viral on Facebook after it was shared by Anirban Chakraborty, a customer who posted the video earlier this week.

According to reports, Chakraborty discovered that Haloi aspires to be a singer from his Zomato profile. When Haloi rang the doorbell with the food, Anirban requested him to sing a song and later uploaded the video on Facebook with this caption: “Presenting Pranjit Haloi (Zomato delivery boy who delivered food today at my doorstep)… I saw in the app that ‘he wishes to become a singer someday’. I requested him to sing a song. He is so good that I made this video… I request everyone to watch and help to fulfil his dream.”

Posted a few days back, Chakraborty’s video has fetched over 8,700 shares and over 4 lakh views on Facebook.
