He shared, “It was in January 2007 when my grandmother told me ‘your mom is not well’. I saw her screaming with stomach ache. Immediately I took her to the emergency and I was told that she had consumed acid. I was taken aback.”

He continued, “I was holding my mom’s hand. Doctors came and said, ‘Leave her hand as she is no more.’ I should have been with her. After the postmortem, doctors said that she didn’t have food for 7-8 days. I also realised that my mom was unhappy in 26 years of her married life.”

He shared her mother was physically abused. “My dad used to beat her, my mom also took loan from people, but my dad always used to have fun but didn’t care about us.”
