But the non-believer in me thought ‘kya hi hoga’.”
“Touchwood, I live so much in the present that I sleep at my will, and that night was the only night in my professional and personal experiences when I didn’t sleep. I couldn’t sleep and could really feel the energy that something is here. Hence, Mussoorie main mujhe zyada darr hain,” he added.
