MP Brittas is a very good friend of mine.
He asked me around a bunch of college students, ‘You're from a good Brahmin family, how did you get married twice?’ I said, ‘What does being from a good family have to do with marriage?’ He said, ‘No, but you pray to Lord Rama, so you live how he lived.’ I said, ‘Firstly, I don't pray to any god. I don't follow Rama's path; perhaps I follow his father's (Dasharatha) path, who had three wives.
