On the show, Big B will be seen engaging in a conversation with Sindhutai, which leads to several interesting revelations. For instance, Big B asks the much-feted social activist about her fascination for pink saris.


Sindhutai replied simply: "I have seen so much of blackness, let there be a bit of pink in my life now." The entire set responded with thnderous oveation.


Sindhutai is respected as one of the pioneers in the field of orphan care in India. In 2017, Sindhutai received the Nari Shakti Award from the President Of India.
