No birthday for 70 years: He just cooked, cleaned and raised a family, then a 'gift' reminded him what home feels like

Ram Dinesh Rai, who spent most of his life working quietly without celebrating personal milestones, marked his birthday for the first time at the age of 70. Married at 15 and working from a young age, he moved across cities in search of stability, eventually finding long-term work as a cook for a family in Hyderabad. Over 46 years, he balanced professional duties with raising his own family of seven, never expecting recognition.
