"This happened 10-15 years ago. 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 Ram, so you live as he lived.' Firstly, I don't pray to any god. I don't follow Ram's path; perhaps I follow his father's (Dasharatha) path (who had three wives)."
