Asked if he felt bad about his nose shown prominently in the cartoons, Yadav said, "I was a football player... (and once) I got an injury on my nose. Netaji (Mulayam Singh Yadav) took me to a doctor who asked me if I was married. After knowing that I'm married, he said there was no need for any surgery to rectify my nose. I became CM with the same nose and its a good charm," as per PTI.
