    # 'remove' method is soft-delete for Paranoia module which i read somewhere is extracted from
    # 'acts_as_paranoia' gem. In any which way, i was still unable to use the callback before_destroy, hence this hack.
    def remove
      super
      has_deleted_the_record = false

    # What would this do ?
    # Basically, this would fetch all the associated models with embeds_many and references_many, we do not want parent model. 
    # We only want the child model to delete( or in this case 'remove') the records.
    # basic algo :
    # 1. Get the first element i.e. model_info from the array of the associated models.
    # 2. Check if its nil
    # 3. If not, downcase and pluralize and call that method.
    #    for ex: Client.first.projects
    # 4. remove them
    # NOTE: remove is now recursive
