Replying the question she said it was not a question about person’s salary, a mother was worthy of the highest respect. " A mother is of highest respect, I don’t think its just about cash but love and respect she gives to someone. She is the highest inspiration in my life." All mothers sacrifice so much for their kids. So I think it is the job of a mother that deserves highest salary. Manushi Chillar’s win has levelled India with Venezuela as the countries with most victories in the history of pageant.
