On the secret of his youthful look and vibrant energy at 65, RMD said, “I eat right and exercise.
“But there is something that I abide by which was said by another older person: the only way for an old person to stay young, is to never let the old person in.
“So, I do not in anyway let the old person in. I could have been dressing like an old person but I maintain classy fashion.
“My eldest child is 43, and till today, he still looks at me whenever I dress and just hiss. But I’m not giving up now. There’s no way I’m going to give up.”
