American talk show host Oprah Winfrey, who is on her maiden visit to India, is amazed with the tolerance and system of joint families in the country.

"What I love most about this country is their tolerance.. how the families learn to love and live together. When I was in America and talking to famous people (from India) I would ask how you live with your parents? Now I see how you do it," she said.

She visited a city slum at Colaba in Mumbai on Tuesday and is also expected to have dinner with a family of four generations.
