Speaking to Curly Tales, Remo said, "Before coming to Mumbai, I was in Jamnagar, Gujarat, and I got converted there because I used to do a lot of work for the church. I used to do shows for them, collect clothes, and used to give them a lot of charity. One day Father Davis came and said, 'Tum itna kuch karte ho church ke liye, tum convert kyun nahin ho jaate? (You do so much for the church, why don’t you convert?)'" he recalled.
