Q. Tell about your experiences in India?
Ans. I love India. It is just wonderful. The people are friendly. I like the traditional wear of the people of Rajasthan and I am obsessed by the jewellery they wear.
Q. How do you like the education system here?
Ans. I feel it is superior than the other American schools. There is no question of competition. The education here is much better.
Q. Who inspired you to empower a girl child?
Ans. I was extremely touched by the lowered role of women in Asia. Many are trying to empower them and develop them in different fields. I honor everyone who is trying to empower girls. When my friend Ms. Bim Bissell asked me to contribute I was thrilled with the idea that I have got a real opportunity and so I started donating for a girl child and fulfilling her dreams.
Rumors
Rumors can destroy a person's self-confidence and can affect their self-esteem. It can also lead to eating disorders, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, depression, it can ruin reputation, disaffect friends and a host of other issues. Why don't people understand, why can't they let live his own life, why can't they let a person do the things he want to do, the person gets sick of being followed and start hurting himself. No one has the right to talk about anyone's personal right or you can't make any wrong comments without knowing the reality.
My advice for you all is: - Rumors are carried by haters, spread by fools and accepted by idiots.
