A Quiet Walk, A Powerful Message
In the clip, a group of schoolgirls walks in a queue, dressed in uniform, heads completely tonsured. The sight is startling yet moving. As claimed, their friend lost her hair due to cancer, and to ensure she never felt different, her classmates shaved their heads. Teachers, too, joined the gesture.
The Internet Takes Notice
Shared on X by Ghar Ke Kalesh, the video’s origin remains unverified. Yet, its impact is undeniable. Netizens showered praise, reposting the clip widely and celebrating the act as a rare display of selfless friendship and humanity.
