If you have the right people you'll go a long way'

I have very few friends in the industry and in real life too. I share a very close bond with my family but my closest bond is with my elder brother, Mrinal Rai, who lives in Jhansi. He has been there for me through my highs and lows. There are things that you cannot discuss with your parents. I discuss everything with my brother and he guides me. I stay alone in Mumbai, so I share everything in my heart with him. He is my support system and is always a phone call away. I have learnt from him that it is nice to be important but it is more important to be nice. Values are very important and relationships have no substitute. If you have the right people in life, you will surely go a long way.
