Sonia Gandhi has recently celebrated her 63rd birthday. Sonia Gandhi is known as a shrewd politician and successor of mother-in-law Indira Gandhi. She singe-handedly helped Congress to gain majority in 2004 when BJP was not only absolute favourite to win for the second time but nobody thought that Congress had a chance at all. All the opinion polls and exit polls confirmed this. But Sonia thought othewise and the result was also different from what the people thought. That was just the begining. She gave her masterstroke by refusing the post of the prime minister and after that, rest was history. Here are some little known sides of Sonia Gandhi:
* She prepares excelent red chilli oil, a base for salad dressing. Early in her marriage, she used to make pasta for mother-in-law Indira.
* One month after her marriage, when her mom was returning Italy, Indira send a note to her: Hi Sonia, this is just to tell you that we all love you.That won Sonia's heart.
* In early days of her marriage, she used to travel a lot on Delhi road behind her husband Rajib on Lambretta Scoter.
* They used to wander around India Gate for ice cream.
* Sonia is fond of handloom sarees, traditional waves.
*She did an Art Restoration Course from National Gallery of Modern Art.
* Sonia is fond of cleanliness, does dusting herself before imortant meeting.
