00:02 - That was one thing I think in my life
00:07 which I did what my father didn't want.
00:14 And he was never happy about it.
00:18 Basically, he was just disgusted with me
00:22 and he said how I could do it.
00:28 He made it a point he never entered any of our restaurants.
00:33 And to the extent that even when I had the chairman
00:37 or the president of Yum restaurants
00:41 for a dinner at my house,
00:42 he refused to come out to meet them.
00:45 And if he by chance met them anywhere outside,
00:48 he only used to say, "Can you sell these for him
00:51 "and give the money to charity?"
00:53 So he was quite outspoken about it.
00:57 See, I believed in the business
00:59 and should I have done it or not, I don't know.
01:02 I mean, I still have a chip on my shoulder
01:05 that I went against my father.
01:08 I mean, that part I was never happy about.
01:11 Although I always believed it's a business
01:14 which can do well and I am still a vegetarian,
01:18 I don't eat meat.
01:19 So I said, you know, every restaurant is selling.
01:24 How does it really make a difference?
01:26 As long as I am not eating,
01:28 I can't stop other people from eating.
01:30 So that was my logic, which my father was not convinced.
01:34 And his logic was, is this the only way you can make money?
01:38 Why can't you make money by doing anything else?
