As a proud Indian we celebrate and dance all year long, and that’s the same vibe I’m feeling with these wonderful kids at Tuloy Foundation. And what an absolute humble soul I got to meet today, Father Rocky. What you’ve done for these kids is what humanity needs today. Thank you MR World Organisation, its moments like this that make me feel rich from within. MabuhayPhilippines  you’ve been an absolute delight!
