I do not take up a responsibility unless I am sure of putting my heart and soul into it.

People change their opinion according to your position. And both politicians and bureaucrats begin to take you more seriously, as they suddenly feel you have become more important.

I don't try to hurt people in any way, and I try to help out wherever I can.

In my heart and soul, I am a West Country man, and ideally, my weekends are spent there.

I was given the task of I.P.L. Chairmanship which I tried to perform to the best of my abilities. The tournament was organised well despite all the controversies. The stadiums were jam-packed, which proved that I.P.L. was still popular.

I am no dummy, mate, that's for sure.
