Students are often seen taking up part-time jobs or doing odd jobs to raise funds for their higher studies. The reason behind this could be anything, be it being independent or financial trouble. However, this certainly is a commendable effort and it shows their dedication and commitment to achieve their goals. Such scenarios are quite common in India. But, it is often stigmatized or looked down upon by society. People see it as a financial weakness or a lack of resources and make fun of the student.
Recently, a video of such a student surfaced on the internet, in which he is seen running a fast food stall. When the vlogger inquires about him, he responds by saying, "Google my name you will find my research articles."
From the video it seems, a foreigner vlogger walks towards a fast food stall and greets the stall owner. "Hello brother, how are you?"
The young man replies, "I'm fine."
Next, the vlogger asks if he can take his order of Chicken 65.
"Chicken 65? How much for one plate?" says the vlogger.
The young man replies, "100 grams 50 rupees"
The vlogger instantly asks to take up the order of 100 grams of chicken 65.
While the man prepares his order, the vlogger walks to him and says, "I found you on Google Maps. This is you right?" and shows him his picture on Google Maps.

As the vlogger receives his plate of chicken 65, he starts munching on it. He shows a big piece of chicken in front of the camera and starts enjoying the food.
Next, the video shows the young man saying, "I'm doing my studies also. Now I'm doing my PhD."
This surprises the vlogger and he inquires more while saying, "Wow at the same time! Oh, what are you studying?"
The man replies, "PhD in Biotechnology."
Next, he adds, "If you just Google my name..."
The vlogger interrupts and says, "Your shop?"
"No, not shop. My research articles" clarified the fast food stall owner.
This again surprises the vlogger.
The PhD student then shows him his research articles on Google.
"So, SRM University, Ryan. On Google Scholar, you can find my research articles," says Ryan.
"Wow, that's great," says the vlogger and handovers money much more than the food price.
While Ryan seems uncomfortable, the vlogger says, "Brother, it's okay. You are doing good work man. And, I wanna help you out with your studies."
Meanwhile, Ryan replied, "You keep it. Nah."
