    There was never 8 coach train ..it was 9 coach..logic is simple..local trains are all EMUs..i.e. unit of 3 coaches in which once coach is prime mover and other 2 are simple boggies..that's why local trains are always in multiple of 3..i.e. 9;12;15 etc

    3:06 that’s so Indian mom… when we got bad grades in school then my mom would be yelling at us and dad is calmly sitting reading a newspaper and the next comment from my mom would be β€œafter all they are his kids” and my dad looks around like β€œwhy everything has to come down to me”… πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ€£ I guess that was her frustration for dad sitting calmly… πŸ€£πŸ˜‚

    4:40 Nimish, just because a person of Indian-origin has an opinion that's different from yours it doesn't mean they're something bad or a herb or whatever. Even people of Indian-origin all have different thoughts and experiences growing up. Not that I agree with Vivek Ramaswamy on most things, but I think he has his opinions just like anyone else.

    Why are most of the comments about Ronnie the interviewer rather than the guest Nimesh? Both, after all, are trying to find their respective ways through their own show business routes and it is Nimesh who has the more unreliable prospects.
