Nalini Desai, Anoop's mother, speaks at an event in his honor

[chyvonneza]

omg, that accent?!! Is his mum South African :O yayyyyyyy, means Anoop must be half SA

Anoop and his family have so much class, dignity, kindness and intelligence. I wish young people all over the America would aspire to follow this example to become educated and considerate of others because it seems the example small children see is extreme rudeness, bad language etc. We need raise children with manners again for the good of everyone living on this planet.

Anoop's parents should totally have a reality TV show! Somebody tell ryan secrest!

Now I see where Anoop got his engaging personality and articulate manner of speech.What a gracious woman!

And I can totally see Anoop with the "detailed 4-year plan going into high school, chemistry by correspondence, lunchtime chorus..."LOL...

I love Mama Desai! She's SO cute!!

Her bit about the Clefs was so sweet. I cracked up when she said she had Melly and Pablo on speed dial and probably called them more than she did Anoop! lol! :-)
