When we meet them, they are living in a chawl in Mumbai, with her father Murari Lal working as a night watchman. But the father and daughter are happy - they have each other and they count that as everything in the world. It is her father who has given Monia her values and her lessons in life. he has taught her that you must be rich in your heart, not in your life.
