Sadanand Joshi:
"To tell you the truth, that i mimic i never knew. I am a 'worshipper'. In Nasik i heard Govindrao Deshpande, a member of the Parliament at that time. I was so impressed by this elocution that i came home and started telling other members of my family about the lecture, rather excitedly. Automatically i assumed his intonation and his gestures. People praised me for my good imitation. This is how i began my career, through my appreciation of a personality. For Atre too i have very high regards."
