What do you like to eat?
I eat everything. Although I do not like jackfruit and peas. When I am at home, I am very strict about food and drink. I don’t have any choice here. I eat whatever I get while traveling. People in Telangana eat more chillies in food. It was a bit difficult there.
I was born in the house of a Kashmiri Pandit who had migrated to Uttar Pradesh. Papa’s father was a Parsi, so normal food is cooked in the house. Desi food is served for lunch and continental food is prepared at night. Yes, ice cream is my favorite. Apart from this, I like to eat tandoori food. Chicken Tikka, Seekh Kebab and Omelette are favourites.
Which is your favorite place to eat and drink in Delhi?
Earlier I used to go to Old Delhi. Now going to Moti Mahal. Sometimes I also go to Sagar, Swagat and Sarvana Bhavan.

I was in boarding school. We were taken out of there before the grandmother was killed. After this home schooling started, because we were not allowed to go to school due to the security region.

After this I went to Rollins College in America, where I studied International Relations, Economics. I have done my Masters from Cambridge University.
Tell me about the first job and salary?
I did my first job in London. The name of the company was ‘Monitor’, which was a strategic consulting company. The salary that I used to get at that time was quite a lot according to those times. All that money was spent on house rent and other things. During that time I got 3000 to 2,500 pounds salary. At that time I was 25 years old.
How did you get interested in politics?
I come from political family. When we were young, many issues of politics, India and whatever was going on at that time were discussed at the dining table. Everything changed after grandmother’s death. Father’s death also had some impact.
When will you get married?
When I find the right girl, I will get married. The only condition is that the girl should be loving and intelligent. My parents had a wonderful marriage. That’s why I have very high thoughts about marriage. I am also looking for such a life partner.
What words do you say when you are angry?

What do you keep near the bed?
answer- Passport, ID, Rudraksh, pictures of Shiva and Buddha are kept in the drawer on the side of the bed. Along with this, there is also a purse and a phone. I keep my phone aside while sleeping at night. I don’t use social media much. I only use WhatsApp and give advice to some youths.
What will you do if you become the Prime Minister of the country?
I would like to transform the education system. I would like to help people engaged in small business. At this time there is a need to take these people into big business. Those who are going through bad times like farmers, laborers and unemployed youth, I would like to provide security to them.
Why did you start the Bharat Jodo Yatra?
In our culture, penance is very important. This is also one of the reasons behind starting the journey. The difficulties faced in doing any work are a kind of penance. Some joined the yatra from Kerala, some joined from Madhya Pradesh, some remained with them all the way. Getting to learn from people, talking to them. The pain in people’s hearts is understandable. Patience has increased a lot during the journey.
