Why can Neem Baba not remember the year when he was born?

Correct Answer

Neem Baba cannot remember the year when he was born because he was born millions of years ago.

He states that he is 'very old' and was born 'millions of years ago somewhere in North India or Myanmar.'

Such an ancient origin makes it impossible to recall the exact year of his birth.
