had such an interesting time reading up about bhadro lok - literally meaning gentleman / well mannered but in essence means cultured, genteel, up and coming, educated or smart and intelligent in what they do, nouveau rich ... Yes, indeed. Rao's are that. Thank you for teaching me something new today.

P.S - Now I know for sure - there are two Bongs reading this story :D

Bhadro Lok is perfect because it has nothing to do with fame, money or position in society, it is all that you have mentioned, so you could be poor but yet be a bhadro lok and on the flip side you could be as rich as you can dream of and yet be a chot lok. I would exclude nouveau rich, as wealth has nothing to do with being bhadro lok.
Btw am not a Bengali but married to one and having lived in Cal for 3 years and with a Bengali husband and mom-in-law for 15, have imbibed much of their local lingo and terms.. like I can never say mithai any longer, its always misthi! 😊 As per my husband, I have been sanskritised! 😉

i did not knew that place like kolagiri exsist
it so beautiful (google)

and now back to update
i really like this story bcz it has a potential to become something beautiful

i dont know if you are going to put the blame on pysc or just someone whom is selling childeren to get money

this world is not the safe place and we all know that
and india def not
i am from Europe -where i live their are so seriouse case about pysc

their was a teacher ( and he really looked like a saint ) but in his big house he had a garage and he kidnapped a girl and raped her cont and then when he got some new target he killed her and when after another girl
he knew where and which girls when to night club and where he could get them
but last time he got busted when he wanted to kidnape a highschool girl and he thought her to be alone but she was with her boyfriend
then he shot the guy but could not get away and shot the girl too
and he was injured
when the police checked his home ther was also another girl that was missing
they found her dead
and that teacher looked really like a saint
so peoples character can be deceiving



Thank you for sharing that incident.

There are all kinds of psychopaths in this world. It is good to not trust anyone blindly, pay heed to your instincts, don't brush aside bad feeling about someone (that doesn't mean you accuse anyone without proof), keep your eyes and ears open.. Generally being cautious in important. The rest depends on chance, luck, fate and destiny.

Awesome chapter...it was obvious that khushi will know the truth about the girl missing and when she knew she did not appreciate it...but elders always want to protect the kids from anything unpleasing and they know how much it will impact khushi...the initial part was awesome...how much Arnav analyzed Madhu's actions...he clearly understood why Madhu did not recognize him...he was annoyed for the rude behavior but he was right about Madhu being distressed and looked that she was in a hurry...he could clearly see that Madhu wanted to check on Aakash too about khushi's whereabouts and she confirmed that Arnav was really Aakash's brother...when Arnav knew what has happened that morning and khushi is missing, he knew that she is going to be there...he was right about that...Arnav and Khushi are feeling the attraction but are fighting it away...lets see where this will take them...Thanks for the PM ...thank you for the Picture of Laburnum...

Sandhya, this res is for your amazing story telling skills.

********************************************************************************

Sandhya, I am feeling bad that I did not follow your Dawn, noon and dusk instead I read it once it was totally completed. The reason I am saying this is, when one is reading a completed story, we tend to concentrate on the bigger picture and lose sight of the smaller hidden gems in the story. .

Having said that I am so glad that I am following this story and after reading each update atleast 2-3 times, I get a feeling that with each update I am discovering a valuable gem hidden in it.

This update just blew me away. What a deja vu kind of situation it was for both Arnav and Khushi.

The same place, the same feeling of being lost for one and looking for the lost one for the other, life indeed came a full circle for these two today.

The rational adult in her said knew it was an occurrence that was as normal as the sunrise and sunset, for the wildflowers always blossomed immediately after monsoons. The child in her had a different theory. She was sure that it was Anjali's way of welcoming her.

What is troubling you? Why haven't you moved on from that place, the very spot where I left you twenty years ago? Why do you hold yourself back from feeling happiness? I see that happening every few minutes. What makes you think that you can assuage your guilt by living in misery? It doesn't work that way.

When he had planted that Laburnum tree fifteen years ago in his sister's memory, he had thought of Khushi, wondering whether she would ever come back here to visit. His heart had leapt seeing her resting under the tree. Now, his sister's memory felt complete. He felt complete.

Its sentences like the above which would remain in my memory long after you have even completed this story. I wish I was a poet to describe the beauty of such sentences but words are just failing me today.

"Arnav!" A stunning smile split her face.

"Better. Keep practicing until we meet again. Ciao. Khushi." He saluted with a wink.


Yes Sandhya, trust me I am going to keep practicing his name until you give us the next update. 😉



A reader-writer relationship is a mutual one. Without readers, the writer's work remains barren and the readers need written works to enjoy.

I am happy you are following The Hands of Time as I write it too, K. Thankful for your appreciation :D
