WATCH: Rinku Singh gifts sports bike to father, video of his ride goes viral

A video of father of Indian cricketer, Rinku Singh, Khanchandra Singh, in which he was spotted riding a bike gifted by his son is doing the rounds on social media. Khanchandra was snapped enjoying the test drive of the Kawasaki Ninja H2R on the streets.

The sheer happiness he felt on driving the bike was quite evident from his facial expressions. The super bike is reportedly available in only one variant and as many colours, and is priced at a price more than INR 5 lakh in India. 

For the unversed, Khanchandra worked in an LPG distribution company. His formative days were quite a struggle. He lived in a two-room quarter near Aligarh Stadium in Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh. Rinku was Khanchandra and the latter's wife Vina Devi's third child. Despite Rinku becoming a renowned cricketer now, Khanchandra remains down-to-earth and still goes to deliver gas cylinders every day.

The heart-warming gesture of Rinku for his father has understandably stirred up widespread buzz on social media, with a whole lot of fans commending Rinku.
