During a recent episode of The Kapil Sharma Show, Sudha Murty shared how an immigration officer refused to believe her residential address when she wrote "10 Downing Street" on the form. 10 Downing Street is the official residence and office of the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Sudha Murty's daughter, Akshata, is married to Rishi Sunak, who currently resides at 10 Downing Street.
¡°Once when I had gone, they asked me my residential address. ¡®Where are you staying in London?¡¯ My elder sister was with me and I thought should I write '10 Downing Street'. My son also lives there (in UK), but I didn¡¯t remember his complete address. But I finally wrote 10 Downing Street,¡± Sudha recalled on the show.
She said that the immigration officer looked at her and asked, "Are you joking?!" She responded, "Nahi, sachchi bolti hu" (No, I am telling you the truth).
