“I was a Jaisimha (Indian cricketer) fan but somehow I met Nawab Pataudi. He just returned from England and it was difficult to understand what he spoke because of his British accent. His humour was different. Vo khud ke joke pe khud hi hanste the kyunki humein samajh hi nahi aata tha. I think my children will kill me when they’ll hear this.”

Then he said it loudly and I said, ‘Yes yes I will’.”
