While the recognition itself was significant, what truly captured public attention was Sethi’s emotional interview with Manorama Online. In the now-viral video, Sethi—who belongs to a Punjabi family but is a second-generation Keralite—spoke in impeccable Malayalam as he shared the story of his late mother’s dream.
His natural command over the language, combined with a deeply emotional delivery, struck a chord with viewers. The moment beautifully blended cultural pride with local identity, leaving audiences both surprised and touched.
