Car chahiye, wife ki full salary chahiye, uske paise se renovation karwane hain n I dont think he returned that amt after R&B refused to take that chq/draft... Toh wo paise he could keep araam se??

Shravu ke wo ipad fiasco time pe Bala was right, but am just not getting a very good feel each time Bala shows stupid jealous streak
Curious question: i dont live in delhi, but want to know what would be avg monthly income of Bala+Vandu -in hand... As far as I know, it cant be soo low ki Bala always behaves like nirupa Roy even to buy icecream tub... Just curious! N whats so wrong abt sending his parents to his brother's plc for a couple of weeks? That guy is his real brother na? Fir whats the big deal?? N paise nahi n itni ego ki prb hai,toh DII mei bhi function mat karo, karo apne ghar pe? Why shouldyour in-laws pay for the function..jab Sis-in-law se help nahi leni? N why invite the world n their brothers... Invite close family,get done with it! After all you are judicious with spending!!


I agree Lekin, BALA type people aren't really villain or evil types, their biggest flaw is pride. Selective help lene mein Inka brain unse kehta hai...le le help she's insisting, she will feel nice, Lekin Baat jahan bare help ki aati hai to brain kehta hai Dekha tujhe apne fukkadd hone ka ehsaas dila rahi hai...and then comes useless ego...self pity and feelings of inadequacy is not always Rona dhona, it is also in anger, envy and jealousy and this is happenig with BALA. He needs to clear his head and he will be able to see things very clearly. RbB ka wealthy and cool attitude is in direct contrast to his situation. He wants to protect his immediate family from getting influenced by RB nd ishita's wealthy status and the onmy way he is capable of doing this is by rejecting the help and care. His defence is saying mean things and being hurtful...this is very common.

And now with II not coming, his brain will agiN tell him, dekha she didn't evn come...I am sure she doesn't care...Lekin deep inside lurking in some corner is his sane part of the brain which m sure will rear its head.

Hersehey I understand you are ticked at Bala, but his story is the story of many HONEST middle class people in Delhi. Not everybody "hustles" in Delhi, with a side business of stock broking, property dealing or some random shit to bring in illegal extra money

Bala and Vandu probably make collectively a joint take home of Rs.1 lakh I would think. A three bedroom apartment in Munirka probably costs upwards of 2 crores?, lets say he bought it over 12-15 years ago before he married Vandu or around the time he married Vandu with his Dad's savings. The EMI alone is probably, Rs.40-Rs.50,000 a month

DELHI IS EXPENSIVE. My parents are retired and they dont get out much, they spend between Rs.15,000-Rs.20,000 a month EASILY. Their home is paid off and they have great health insurance. My parents power bill is upwards of Rs.5000 a month 6 months a year

Its normal for HONEST people to run out of money by the 20th of the month. I strictly speaking of people that DONT cheat.

He feeds 5, mostly 6 on a routine basis, he drives a car to work, Petrol costs Rs.60? a litre On fuel alone they must be spending Rs.5000-7000 a month. The apartment in Munirka has 3 ACs... power bills in Delhi can kill you...

Its NOT easy to make ends meet

He has insecurities and issues and I wouldnt label him Nirupa Roy, sorry...😆

I know countless Balas in Delhi... and he is a mirror image of many.

Yeah!! I agree Delhi is expensive.. N thats why asked what would be the Bala household avg income... I think if he bought his house 15-20 yrs ago, n if he works in pvt bank, then the bank usually pays between 7-20K per month for house rental deoending on your city, if you submit rent receipts n if you are not renting then you get some equivalent sum of money as housing allowance. Plus I doubt a house 10-15 yrs ago in delhi would incurr a loan of 40-50K per month.. But I am not from delhi, so I dont know.. Anyway.
Honest people is what I was talking about n thats why I could not relate to the no money by 20th wala fact, though apart from the house emi I agree with all other expenses, so you might be right abt being really tight on budget by month end ... I am just very surprised with his selective favor-taking business... If II paysfor Shravan's tennis its fine, coz it means monthly expense.. But if she pays for baby's naming ceremony then its wrong... N also how he becomes shravan kumar, feels OK that II n Amma should keep cooking/cleaning at Munirka, but not extend monetary help coz this hurts his ego.

Harsh

from bala's point of view---- he is already feeling bad that he is getting help from his in-laws for basic things both physically and monetarily becos he doesnt get any support from his side...all the things which he takes help was basic nessessities which is really needed...he feels really bad that he is taking this help...but he does it becos he doesnt have any option...

but this hall thing according to him is extravagance---the expense he doesnt want at all let alone get help...he already is suffering from the inability...y increase that ??? or in other words by lending more for an unnecessary extravagance they are pulling him down...his esteem hurts...this leads to a case where --- just becos ur family helps him, it doesnt mean that ur family will decide how everything is done illaya ??? Iam not saying that II/iyers are doing it...but he feels like that becos they did the hall thing irrespective of bala refusing...

for me the biggest mistake done was by vanditha...she very well knows that bala didnt want that...but she encouraged/nudged II to do it...

second the matter became big becos II told bala...if vandu had told it, she would have told it differently...like the car thing and it would not have become this bad...

third was bala telling off II...he very well knows that II did it becos of vandu...he shud have shown his anger on vandu...but he showed in on II which is wrong...

I agree bala has his pride...infact everyone has...he lets his pride and gets help when it is absolutely necessary...but he doesnt want to do it for extravagance like a hall when it is not at all needed...he thinks that he is a middle class man and will celebrate the same way in his means...y get help for an unnecessary extravagance ???

FROM A BABY TO A NAME

Stunning description , capturing the flavor of a ritual done at home . The banana trees tied to the door frame, the mango leaves, the burning of dhoop, the aroma of sambar, filter coffee transported me bk to my daughter's naming ceremony which happened in chennai.
People cluttered around, cook going helter- shelter , tables and shamiana at the terrace, the homam kund at the center, priests chanting, thatha in a easy chair with vibhuti pattai, noisy mamis, the aroma of incense, food and flowers, nadaswaram at the bk ground ,
Adhu ennadhu, a tall stainless steel drum of filter coffee with cups stacked , not even that detail got missed, it's 70mm in my head as usual now .
This function is so significant for both the mother and the baby and sadly, the mother is so down in the absence of her sister , the father and grand parents all stressed.
How many times we see that in a home full of 100 people or odd , ironically not one to welcome people at the door. It will be so handy to hv relatives to take up small tasks like welcoming ppl at the door or guiding ppl to the terrace. May be nit intentional though, it's just that ppl are so busy catching up , gossiping as that's the time together they get these days. So such a casual description of Amma having to open the door was so realistic. This welcoming would hv been done by II, had she been there. Amma and Appa must feel as if their right and left hands chopped off. Atleast they have the well meaning janani Athai around for support.
She is already being missed and the function has just begun. Huge hole to fill, perhaps never will be filled.
So dude, crisp and shaven in appearance much to the wonderment of Amma and Appa.
Lasya, dressed to kill, Sam, tan and Ranjanji in tow... Lovely. Balan mandali mates of Amma ,the hard on hearing kamakshi Athai bk adding mirth and colour . Almost full presence of II's in-laws with the exception of Manny, but the lady who bound these families by marrying the dude glaringly absent.
And II must be distressed cursing herself now . When the dude goes to meet his wifey, the wifey is going to chew his ears off for details. Dude, be ready to exercise your vocal chords.
