{{/usCountry}}"I take a lot of pride in the diversity that India holds. I feel it is most unique and special about us, where every 100 km the spices, the food, the language, the culture changes. But there's something that unites us, the values that unites us. It is across everywhere, whether it is cities or small towns or rich or poor. It is just those values that make us Indian, and that is something in which I take pride in," he added.
