People are not just approaching me for photos but they express sentiments as if I am a member of their family. They speak from the heart when they say, 'Dada (brother) when we saw you in the finale we felt this and that.' It's fun that they love me with all their heart. Some people get emotional, be it youngsters or older people. When I see them get overexcited I feel that Bappa has given me so much."
