Mentioning some hilarious anecdotes, Kher said that at a concert in Ahmedabad, he found mounds of garbage outside the venue. The municipal corporation was on strike.

"No other country is like India. But, it's not about good qualities only, we have so many flaws also. We are very good on this planet earth. We are matchless in some aspects. But, there are others, who are better than us in other respects, likely cleanliness. We will do good to learn from others," the distinguished singer said.
