Saakshi’s Questionnaire: If you could completely eliminate one vice and one virtue from the world, what would you choose? Ans: I thank you for being gracious and keeping “IF” at the beginning of your question. The current population of our world is 7.2 billion and I am just the one! Jokes apart, I don’t think I […]
When the task came-up, I was not really into it. I thought our Charlie (Chiradeep) would choose whose questions I would be answering and vice versa.
