When Vinod Kapri had asked the boy why doesn't he run in the morning, Pradeep said he has to work and cook so he doesn't get time. He disclosed that he works in McDonald's in Sector-19 Noida. He revealed that he runs for 10 km every day. He even shared that his mother is hospitalised and he lives with his brother.
Not just that, Kapri even offered the young boy dinner but he declined and said that he needs to have it with his brother who works on the night shift or else he'll be left alone.
Pradeep has left everyone impressed with his dedication and acknowledged his will to achieve his dreams in life.
