I got my first basic training from my wife Soni because she is a trained actor.”

A journey, I will call it the last chapter, I’m calling it ‘The Last Chapter’, where when you come towards the end of the story and you look back and understand your life differently and the events of the lives resonate, echoing in your heart in a very different way. So I’ve just begun that work. I began working on it and again, this would be dedicated to my grandchild Raha."

There was an ocean of emotion coursing through that voice."
