I think this picture belongs to early 60s. Papa and amma had variety of modes of communication. Few of them being quire strange - yet very cute. He was a great food lover......., as long as the food is on time. Ignoring food was his most usual way to communicate that he is not happy with someone, something, some event or the absence of it. Resuming on food normally used to be the result of " some " small "something" that amma normally would figure out with a short recollection of recent events. At times, very good food itself used to be the catalyst in getting him back to his routine. He was a great guy.
He loved walking. The day he died, he was on a walk to get my nephew's watches fixed. I carried him to the hospital in my car. I recall vividly..... seeing him on my back seat while driving my way to the cardiac hospital in hometown.... in deep pain - ...........heart attack !!!
He loved watching wrestling and football. He loved kids. He was a man of traditions. I miss him quite often. May Allah bless you papa !!
