What Did SN Subrahmanyan Say? 

During an employee interaction event, Subrahmanyan was asked why the staff of the multi-billion-dollar conglomerate is required to work on Saturdays. To that, the Chairman claimed he regrets he cannot make the employees work on Sundays. He admitted he work on Sundays. 

‘Regret I am not able to make you work on Sundays’

"I regret I am not able to make you work on Sundays. If I can make you work on Sundays, I will be more happy because I work on Sundays," he said.

“What do you do sitting at home? How long can you look at your wife? Come on, get to the office and start working,” he added further. 

It certainly is heartwarming to see the former badminton star giving her opinion on the snowballing controversy.
