Sultan aka Jimmy, a Pomeranian, is the darling of Virar, Vasai and Nalasopara as he goes around, happily plonked atop Ajay&rsquo;s autorickshaw. &ldquo;We are spreading smiles,&rdquo; says Ajay. &ldquo;I realised this little one brings a smile on people&rsquo;s faces. So, I started keeping him on top of the autorickshaw for people to see. It&rsquo;s like Jay-Veeru&rsquo;s friendship, but only better.&rdquo;
Sultan was found by Nalasopara autrickshaw driver, Ajay Girja Shankar Verma, in Bandra eight years ago. Both have been inseparable since then.
&ldquo;He has been there for me through thick and thin, and knows all my secrets as well,&rdquo; laughs Ajay, who claims that his pet understands 10 languages. &ldquo;Hindi, English, Marathi, Bangla, you name it,&rdquo; he says.
Ajay rechristened Jimmy Sultan after the dog&rsquo;s popularity in the neighbourhood grew - he wanted a &ldquo;bolder&rdquo; name for him. Sultan seemed an apt choice.
&ldquo;When people in BMWs roll down their windows and ask me who this hero is, I found &lsquo;Jimmy&rsquo; a little off. Sultan is bolder,&rdquo; he says.
Ajay, who hails from Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, is not just an animal lover, but a doting father and feminist as well. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m very proud I have daughters. I hope my daughters follow their dreams to become a choreographer and doctor. I feel I have become a better person since Sultan has come into my life,&rdquo; beams Ajay.
