Mr. Parakh accepts he has been influenced with gold since the age of five and so he decided to make his 45th birthday “A Golden Happening”!
“I never go out with less than 2-3 kg of gold jewelry,” Parakh said.“I had always been fascinated towards this royal metal since I was five and over the years that interest has become real passion.“In fact even during my wedding, 23 years ago, I sported more gold than the bride” he memorized.
He added: “My own family members are barely interested in my love for gold. They just ignore and accept it as a part of domestic life. But the rest of my extended family thinks I am eldritch”. Despite his love of flaunting his gold ornaments,he is one of the magnanimous persons we know of, Mr. Parakh financed 120 polio operations over the last five years and last year he spent a week volunteering to help those harmed peoples.“I also arrange for any requirements for poor people like medicines, food, blankets, from which I get huge satisfaction” He added.He further said “It needs a brave heart to wear a shirt like this, not only brave but also a gun like my fully licensed revolver which I carry with me whenever I go out”.Mr. Parakh is going to wear this exclusive, expensive outfit at an extravagant party planned for this weekend.
