To this day, if you ask him, he will have tears in his eyes or he will be so angry that he will answer with great pride. He grew up in the worst times.

And then, 15 days before that when I was getting a pre-delivery massage, because that's what I do, and she (her masseuse) told me, 'Aap na doodh liya karo (You should not consume milk, should not have, whatever). Your child should not be dark).'
