At the age of 16, my mother had to take on the stance of the family's mantle bearer and she did a splendid job all around and educated my brother and I in London day schools. She insisted always on our 'Desi Roots'. We traveled this beautiful world but the chunk of our holidays were spent in Bombay and Delhi to vibe with our own traditions. ''
