Ratna Pathak Shah talks about her relationship with Naseeruddin Shah and how she used to bully Supriya Pathak during childhood. She shares how her upbringing defied societal norms, thanks to her progressive parents, who never discriminated between Supriya and her and encouraged both sisters to learn to drive. She recalls her grandmother's reaction to the birth of two granddaughters.
