Meenu di, it was MONA who went to college in Pune. But SS keeps mentioning her school in Vishakhapatnam where she was supposedly Head Girl.😕Will try to find that article.

And SS isn't Sindhi, she is Garhwali. So no quota-shota for her.😆

Isnt Shilpa's maiden name "Saklani"...I was under the impression that all desi names ending in "ni" belong to the Sindhi community...Hiten Tejwani,Shekhar Ravjiani,Bhojwani,Advani etcetera..Many Sindhis whom I know have the "ni" suffixed to their surnames

No, Saklani is definitely a Garhwali surname. Shilpa's family belongs to Dehradun and she got married there; and that's where I happen to live. Dehradun falls in the Garhwal region of Uttaranchal (now Uttarakhand) state.
