Of Father 

Anupam Kher on his father 

" My father would call me at eight every morning from Shimla irrespective of which part of the world I was in. He was my best friend He was an ordinary man with the extraordinary quality of being everybody's friend. He had affected a lot of lives by just remaining ordinary. He would go first thing in the morning to a newspaper vendor and see if there was any news about me. When he passed away and I opened his trunk, I found every single press cutting about me which he had collected and underlined. There were two words he told me one hour before he died — Live Life."
