Sonal Shah, BJP president Amit Shah's wife, has two cute pet tortoises at her Ahmedabad home. Sources tell us that she spends at least one hour with the pets during lunch time.

Sonal Shah considers them as avatars of Lord Vishnu even prays before them for hours. In fact, according to Hindu beliefs, the tortoise is supposed to bring good luck.


There are no tortoises in the Shahs Akbar Road bungalow in New Delhi, but Sonal has built a small Saibaba temple inside the compound, to the left of the main entrance to make the house vaastu compliant.

Will they win the Bihar elections for Shah's party? Watch this space.
