But then what do the speaking styles of Nehru, Tharoor have in common ? That's what I meant by retro-British accent. @Shefaly

I find coloured eyes on olive skins in men singularly creepy. And the sideburns suggest he has a 1970s Rajesh Khanna hangover. That is, like, so last century. Neo:

A Maid consultancy service, to provide well trained, sophisticated yet caring and sincere maids for the returning NRIs to India. May be we can form a portfolio in the cabinet - The Maids minister and appoint Mrs. Neo for that post. How is that! :) I see what is the next boom industry in India.

By then, Junior will also be around 10 and you can safely send him to Doon or Scindia.
