How nicely he said he didn't have money to waste. 😊 How politely he said i cannot take credit that i let him live in my house as it was not my house. My parents house it was. 😊 such a real person vivek sir. SIDDHARTH KANAN keep bringing these type of interviews.

[@shekhardeshmukh720]

It's not easy to change yourself and lead a life after every turn. Vivek Vaswani has a saint like qualities in him. A rare person, with compassion, merciful. To my mind Vivek Vaswani was destined to be a teacher. By the way, I once crossed his path, that time, I was working in Loksatta- (Indian Expres group) and out for getting responses from the audience to Shahrukh's newly released movie. I don't know exact name, but it was around 2005 or 06, a theater in south Bombay, where I found Vivek Vaswani was standing there among audiences waiting for getting in. I asked him some question and he politely gave me a replym. For my senior, in those days, finding a well knnown producer actor standing outside theater was like a breaking news. Wonderful man wonderful thoughts. He will lights other life always...

[@hkalsi2136]

This man Vivek Vaswani has given an amazing interview. Yeh Sindhi admi ka dimag bahut tez hai. Sain Sindhi business mein bahut kamjab log hote hain. Sindhis do not study much but are excellent in business.The strategic thinking Vaswani is showing makes us wonder how the Sindhi hindus could not forsee their destruction in Sindh during partition talks in 1946 and ensure Sindh became part of India. The sindhis suffered a lot in 1947 partioning and many were killed, their daughters kidnapped and sold by Pakistani baloch pathans. Many fled to India as refugees and restarted from nothing to become rich again in 30 years. Yako rakhe sian tako mar sake na koin. Vaswani has survived two cancers, financial cheating but still remains civilised, and hopeful. May God help this man. My admiration for Sindhis has increased after watching Vivek Vasvani.

This happens a lot but to Shah rukhs credit he has accredited his success to Mr Vasvani many many times.
