He later moved from Hasselt to Kampenhout and settled there.[2] Both of his parents are Indian, born in Punjab, raised in the country, and belonged to the city of Jalandhar.[3]
It's a difficult choice and has a lot of risk involved. I am the first person from the top 6–7 footballing countries in Europe to have taken such a step. I had tears in my eyes at the airport thinking that there would be no coming back to Belgium. But it is a great time to be part of Indian football, the potential for growth is immense. I want to be part of that growth and eventually play for the Indian team.

I have got much love in India and after my tour in India I have started reciving [sic] more love from Indian people. Generally I don't get such response from Belgium. In India, the passion is more than that of Belgium.
