He said, “This one is from this year’s Karwa Chauth. I posted this happily, but faced criticism (bohot gaaliyan sunne mili) for this particularly. I touch Laxmi Maa’s feet, but whenever I get the opportunity I touch my Laxmi’s feet as well," referring to his wife Sheetal Thakur. "If i get respect from her, why can I not do the same thing to her?” he questioned.

"This is equality in my eyes. Lastly, I would like to say, this is not rarity and because maybe I am in the public eye. But, many of my friends also do this. In urban centres, you will see, if wife has kept fast for husband, he also does the same. I am not the first person. If a wife can touch the feet of the husband, he can also do the same. I think this should be normalised and it is my duty and responsibility to do so."
