Narayana Murthy pointed out that while his wife is a philanthrop, she is “very careful about money” adding that she seldom spends on her own comfort. Sudha Murty responded saying that she believes in spending money on what is needed. “What do we need in life? Good food, not like chana bhatura, but good, healthy food. We don’t need so many clothes. I spend all money on philanthropy. He’ll tell me to buy business class tickets, but I say, ‘Why? I will reach the same destination, at the same time with an economy ticket too.’” she said. Pointing to the difference between her and her husband, Sudha Murty said that sometimes opposites attract. “This is where we have a difference of opinion. He says I am extreme end, I call him the extreme end. We are opposites, but opposites attract, so we find a compromise zone”, she said. Sudha Murty was once called ‘cattle classOn a previous appearance on Kapil Sharma’s show, Sudha Murty had revealed that she was judged people when she tried to board a flight in salwar kameez while holding a business class ticket. “Around 4-5 years ago, I had worn a salwar kameez and was standing on the business class queue, so they thought I am poor and told, ‘Oh they are cattle-class people. How will they know what is business class?’ So I went up to them and asked ‘What is cattle-class?’),” she said.
