Aur budget me rakhenge aur unone bola ki agar kuch extra paise chahiye toh khud kama lena. Aur hamesha se joh mere pita joh hai, unki joh journey rahi hai kamal ki rahi hai.” (My first earnings occurred when my parents lovingly sent me to America, but they were anxious not to spoil me, so they kept me on a tight budget with little pocket money.
They told me that if I wanted more money, I would have to earn it myself. My father’s path has always been extraordinary, and this has inspired me.)
