'My parents were so happy that they were crying'
How did your parents react when you were declared the winner?
My parents were so happy that they were crying! Only I know from where I have come. My entry to this contest was strongly opposed by two mentors but I was persistent and eventually won everyone. I left everything to god. I thank my parents, mentors and the audience for the support.
What do you want to tell Raja and Amanat?
They are my elder brothers, I want their blessings.
