The paratha story with his dad is so relatable! 😄 That's the real India - food, family, and festivals. Good to see him talking about simple joys on a big show like Wheel of Fortune.

Respectfully, while the message is nice, I wish more celebrities would use their platform to highlight the actual struggles of farmers during the harvest season, not just the festive spirit. The gratitude should also be towards their hard work.
