What’s your typical day?
I keep very long hours. I am normally at work by 8 and usually work till 9 pm. Nowadays it goes on till 10 pm.
What’s your meal on the go?
I eat whatever I get on the way during the campaigns. At anyone’s house. I don’t carry any food.
Dos and donts for your party workers in the heat?
None. Not for me, not for them. We are all tough and clearly we have it easier than the farmer who tills in 42 degrees in the field.
How often do you check your mobile on campaigns?
Once every three or four hours.
How do you unwind?
I spend time with my family. I read a lot, though nowadays it’s just manifestos and newspapers. And I love music – Indian classical, rock, jazz, everything.
