Many Lives, Many Masks

Two months ago, Robert Vadra was a faint whisper on the lips of a few savvy media people and the few living members of India's greatest political dynasty—the Gandhis. Today, his name and the incessant accusations hurled upon him is a loud roar. How did a petty businessman from Moradabad capture this entire country's attention and why do skeletons keep tumbling out of his closet? How did he become a billionaire practically overnight? None of this would matter had he not been India's first son-in-law/ married to the reticent Priyanka Gandhi. 

So far, most accusations of rampant corruption and unpolitical behavior haven't been proved beyond a doubt and most people are convinced of his wrongdoing. Though we don't know much for sure, we do know that Vadra is a man of many masks. Perhaps he's never asked for the spotlight but it's on him now and everyone wants to know what the real face beneath all those disguises look like. Without further ado, here are a few things you may not have known about the coiner of the term 'Mango people.' Here's to decoding Robert Vadra just a little bit more.
