3 Idiots in Real Life: Man Helps Deliver a Baby on Mumbai Train Platform

The incident took place around 1 a.m. at Ram Mandir station, Mumbai. The man’s quick action and bravery saved the lives of both the woman and her baby, earning him widespread praise on the internet.

The woman had gone into labor on a train. According to a viral Instagram post shared by an eyewitness, Manjeet Dhillon, who saw the woman in severe pain, immediately pulled the train’s emergency chain to stop it.

The caption of the video reads: “This man is truly brave. Words aren’t enough to describe him. It all started around 1 a.m. at Ram Mandir station, when he pulled the train’s emergency chain to stop it. I still get chills saying this. The woman’s baby was halfway out, half inside, and half outside. At that very moment, it truly felt like God had sent this brother there for a reason.”

The man in the video said, “Pehli baar kiya hai jeevan mein maine yeh. Itna darr lag raha tha na, par video call pe madam ne help kiya.” (It’s the first time I’ve done something like this. I was very scared, but the doctor helped me over a video call.)

According to the post, the man successfully delivered the baby with guidance from a doctor on a video call.

The eyewitness added: “We all tried our best, we called several doctors, but the ambulance was taking time to arrive. Finally, a female doctor guided him over a video call, and he did exactly what she instructed. His courage in that moment was beyond words.”

According to the woman’s family, she had earlier been taken to a hospital, but it refused treatment, forcing them to return home via train. The post continued: “It’s truly shameful that a hospital refused to help a mother in such a situation. That night, this man became the reason two lives were saved. He saved both the mother and the baby, and together we made sure she reached the hospital safely. I can’t even express in words what I’m feeling right now.”
