His teacher, Kiren Kaur, says, "This
boy is very creative. He doesn't come from a very rich family. He didn't buy
the mask he is wearing, he sewed his own, for his parents and for himself... So
he came up with what we call the "face mask extender" for the
Punjabis... From word of mouth the popularity if this item has spread to the
U.S. and India. The academy has received order from corporations and companies
to custom-make the extender.
