Vindu further added, "The day I cleared 8th, I went to him and he then started me on push-ups, sit-ups, and pull-ups. Trust me that passion to achieve was something else. By the time the holidays ended, I felt a lot stronger and when I resumed school, I was happy because those tears vanished completely. I was not bullied anymore. By the time I finished the 10th standard, I was the strongest kid in Jamnabai Narsee."

"He encouraged me to have my drinks at home, rather than go out and drink in public places. In fact, on the night before he passed away we shared a drink together," shared Vindu, after the death of his father in 2012.
