Birthdays are always special. But the toughest part of a birthday is to pick up an extraordinary gift for our loved ones.
Kapil Mishra the foster son-in-law of former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee wanted to express his love and make his wife’s birthday literally out of this world – so he bought a three-acre plot of land on the moon for his spouse.
