I’m not afraid to sport a salmon-pink rugby shirt or a rich Tyrian purple T-shirt. Because my father was never around and I didn’t have the whole father-son experience with football and no-girls-allowed playhouses, my colorful world has taken a new hue. So, while the “big game” is on television, I knit my friends scarves, I cook my own dinner, and I organize my house.

I remember asking my dad, what 21st century meant. Like always, he answered me in a way that made me understand what exactly it was that the scion of the Gandhi family meant. Unfortunately, Rajiv Gandi did not make it to the 21st century. I am sure had he been there he would have been amazed to
