Akheraj's house. Tastefully decorated with handicrafts. And those pillows and wall hangings. They are all pretty. Though the entrance is very bad in comparison with the interiors. And they have big rooms, big hall with lots of well carved wooden furniture.Who purchased those items or handed down from previous generations? Reminds of ethnic in real ethnic home. And the old ceiling fans turning lazily. The rooms big enough to hide lovers, big enough to roam, big enough for a big family. The cow eating always, not sleeping or resting. What about water? Do cows never sleep like us? They use cups to drink tea. Some modern invasion. And the mobile and four wheeler. A machine manned by one person providing livelihood for the entire family!

The interiors are fabulous and a delight but the exterior needs some work. And I missed the pooja room and aarti plate.

True. Interiors are done up very beautifully and tastefully.
Couldn't help noticing the bed cover on Kamili's bed.There was so much of intricate work done on that.

Almost every piece of furniture looks like a piece of art with it's intricate carvings or the way it is shaped.

May be Akheraj's parents/ancestors gathered all this stuff over yearsšŸ˜†

Even BH when it started all those years ago had the same kind of look but with a kind of east west fusion.

And also that rough jewellery womenfolk wear.

Splash of colorful lehengas and odhnis.

Frugal food. Rough small rotis and some sabji. Colored drinks for guests and lassi or chaas?

The rough mud road where the posh car cant cruise smoothly.

And calling school bag as basta. It is also a telugu word for a bag.

They say real India lives in villages. And cities represent an entirely different picture.

Jaitsar stands between them. A village except for BH and the big hospital. A small town. Where pagdi wearing men and head covering women coexist with the genteel folk.
