At the age of 12, he stole Rs 200 from his father to fund his first ever international trip to Nepal and then there was no stopping him. Oh, and the idea of the trip struck him because he was angry. Yes, he travels to vent out his frustration. Be it Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Orissa, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Assam, erstwhile Calcutta, entire Bihar, and then Delhi, Himachal, Haryana, Punjab, and Kashmir, you name it and he has seen it.<\/p>\n<p>His passion knows no excuse. Money doesn\u2019t hold him back. <em>\u201cThere were times when I used to go short on funds while on a trip. When I was In Kerala, I worked as a daily laborer and earned my way out.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>But does that stop him from being a good father?
