Aishwarya Rajesh talks about her childhood memories with Manchu family

Aishwarya studied at Sri Vidyanikethan in Chennai, and when asked about the family, she revealed that her eldest brother studied with Manchu Manoj and was close to him. She said, “Manoj and my oldest brother were classmates and friends; he’s no more now. Whenever he sees me, he tells me, don’t feel bad that Raghavendra isn’t here. I’m always here for you. I think it’s a very sweet thing for Manoj to tell. I also recall how Manoj and Vishnu were climbing on a beautiful tree on campus and chatting.” She also said that she was only in fifth grade when Manoj was in eleventh grade, so he never played his trademark pranks on her.

She also spoke about how Lakshmi would come to school to create awareness about cleanliness. “Manchu akka also…Lakshmi akka (elder sister) also would come to school. I still remember how she would return from the US. She used to take the mike and say (imitates her accent), I want to tell all the kids to not put the chocolate wrappers. You should take and put it in the dustbin…she used to talk in that US accent. I can never forget that. She would talk so stylishly while asking us to keep the campus clean.” Lakshmi reacted to the video the townhall account posted on Instagram. Taking it sportingly, she commented, “Oseyyyy (Oye),” with laughter and red heart emojis.
