Bengaluru-based content creator Rayaz shared the video on Instagram, giving followers a glimpse of an unexpected encounter at the airport.
In the clip, he spotted a man standing on the air bridge with his phone raised, trying to take a selfie before boarding his flight. Rather than walking past, Rayaz approached him and offered to click the picture instead.
As he handed over his phone, the passenger smiled and said, "This is my first time flying."
Rayaz then asked him to stand in a different spot so the aircraft would appear in the background before taking a few photographs for him. Once he was done, he handed the phone back, leaving the passenger smiling.
Sharing the video on Instagram, Rayaz captioned it, "Delhi diaries, be the reason behind someone's smile."
