After the Aam Aadmi Party’s landslide victory in Punjab, comedian-turned-politician Bhagwant Mann is all set to take oath next week as the state’s first AAP chief minister. While exit polls predicted AAP’s sweeping victory days ago, Mann’s mother Harpal Kaur had prophesied in February that her son would be CM.

“Mera beta mukhya mantri ban gaya,” Kaur says hugging her son seated next to her flashing a wide smile. The short clip was shared on Twitter that has now been viewed over 17,000 times.
