It’s so nice in this world full of horrible insane headlines to get some of these great positive human interest stories every now and then.

That really is exceptional.
I have travelled to India a few times and the food wasn’t spicer than what I could get here in Kansas.
After some discovery I learned that we use the word spicy differently (although South India Andhra style was a bit hotter).
I was used to using the word spicy to mean the heat level of the food, kinda like a measure of capsaicin. This is how I see Americans use the word.
They were largely using spicy to refer to the volume off spices in a dish, kinda like a measure of “strength of flavor”. This is how I saw various cultures in India use the word.
Those things are often related, but are different in meaningful ways that result in these tropes.
India has some good ones. Hanuman and Bahubali would both fall into the superhero category.
