She questions the gendered inequality within households, highlighting it. “Mere paise? Accha? Ghar humara, bacche humare, paise tumhare? Shaadi ek 4 pheron se hi toh aagyi thi, tabse ab tak sabke peeche bhaagte bhaagte puchti hi toh rehti hun (My money? Really? The house is ours, the children are ours, but the money is yours? … Marriage happened with just four pheras, and since then I’ve been running after everyone, constantly asking, Isn’t that all I’ve been doing?)"

Mihir tries to calm her, saying she "misunderstands." However, Tulsi retorts. “38 saal se tumhara ghar chala rahi hun, salary dete ho mujhe? Salary kya chutti tak nahi milti. Tum chutti lete ho, bacche chutti lete hain, ghar ke naukar chutti lete hain. 38 saal main kya maine kabhi chutti li?"

She ends with a powerful monologue saying, “Zindagi bhar ek aurat ko usko stree dharm sikhaya jaata hai, streedhan ki toh kabhi baat nahi hoti? Toh yeh maanke chalo yeh 10 lakh rupay mera streedhan tha."
