Speaking with mid-day, Mondkar said, "Every week, I receive 3-4 snake rescue calls from various areas of Borivli, Kandivli and Dahisar. My daughter Aarna and my wife Rupali also help in rescuing snakes. Whenever we go for a rescue, I first check if it's a poisonous snake or not. Once that is confirmed, only then I allow my daughter or wife to handle it."
