Asha speaks: “I’ve acquired a great many moustaches over the years! The Rajah’s signature curly-whirly-twirly moustache is an indispensable accessory on my school visits and the source of much merriment whenever I sport it. Friends also started gifting me moustache-shaped earrings and bracelets to use. I’ve also made hundreds (literally) of moustaches to gift to children who look wistfully at mine!”
