Mumbai: Mumbai's most popular sexpert Dr Mahinder Watsa died here on Monday at 96, his family said.
Through his ''Ask the Sexpert'' column published in Mumbai Mirror newspaper for the last 15 years, Watsa educated and entertained his readers with witty replies.
"Dad was a man of many dimensions. He lived a glorious life and on his terms," read a statement by his children.
In a country where discussing sex openly is still taboo for many, Watsa, son of a military doctor, had a sort of fan following.
Be it erectile dysfunction or middle-aged pregnancy, no query was off the limits for this sexpert.
Watsa''s unabashed responses to the closeted sexual dysfunctions of our populace were refreshing and upfront. He was literally what the doctor ordered to give some much-needed light-heartedness.
