The Prime Minister told the Bollywood actor that he is not attached to anyone but his mother.

“If I had left my home after becoming Prime Minister then I could have missed my family. But I left my home at a very young age and was never very attached to my family,” he said.

“I called my mother here, to spend some time with her, but I was not able to do that due to my hectic schedule. I could only manage to share meals with her sometimes as I was busy...Even my mother felt that I have a very tight schedule and it is not possible for me to spend time with her,” he added.
