Before anyone ever cared where I would play basketball, I was a kid from Northeast Ohio. It’s where I walked. It’s where I ran. It’s where I cried. It’s where I bled. It holds a special place in my heart.
My relationship with Northeast Ohio is bigger than basketball. I didn't realize that four years ago. I do now.
I also wanted my basketball players to know that I really cared about them. Forget basketball; as a person, I cared, I cared about their family.
Oftentimes, even as a little kid, I would get up before anyone else. My brother would still be sleeping, my mom would still be sleeping, so I would literally play 'Monopoly' by myself. I would play board games; I would do things by myself.
Indiana is always home to me. It holds a special place in my heart.
Darjeeling holds a special place in my heart as a lot of my film, 'Yaariyan,' was shot there.
'Dogfight' holds a special place in my heart, and I try to sing the songs whenever I can.
So yes, winning Varun holds a more special place in my heart. Also, falling in love on a reality show is so special as it is documented for life. MTV has presented our love story in complete Bollywood style.
I live in Paris, yet Monaco, where I spend a lot of time, holds a very special place in my heart.

South India, and in particular Hyderabad, holds a special place in my heart because I have a huge fan base here.
Only once in a thousand years or so do we get to hear a Mozart or see a Picasso or read a Shakespeare. Ali was one of them, and yet at his heart, he was still a kid from Louisville who ran with the gods and walked with the crippled and smiled at the foolishness of it all.
I ran track. I ran cross country. But I did not play organized basketball in high school, at least on our team. But I played a lot of sports.
I absolutely love writing and sharing my enthusiasm with students, and because of 'Hattie Big Sky,' Montana holds a special place in my heart.
I loved 'Saturday Night Fever' when I was a kid. I couldn't believe people talked that way. It was just a whole new culture I didn't understand. I snuck into it. It was an R-rated film. So it holds a special place.
No one cared what she wanted. No one had ever cared. And perhaps, worst of all, no one ever would care.
As a Brooklynite, this borough holds a special place in my heart, and I'm excited to represent BSE Global and identify opportunities that elevate our community to new heights.
