The dude heard none of it, he is in the living room chatting with Mr and Mrs Iyer and II's bedroom is down a narrow hallway and they are standing by the bathroom door

Sai bhajans are playing in Periappa's room across from II's

Its too filmy and soapy to have him listen in. This journey is a self realization one, R&B saying "Arey wah meri biwi aaj ke baad kabhi aisa nahi karegi" types is too impractical

This is what a middle class life is all about

Strtching pay cheques, paying maids, eating left overs, sonetimes not cooking at all!!!

A veen there done that situation!!

Wonderfully written Nisha!!

loved it.. feeling bad for vandu now...middle class life is never easy and to take care of 3 old age people in pregnant stage...poor vandu...

She is a smart, mature woman..have her own desires but knows has to take care of family too..like they say woman is the pillar of family...she can't act impulsively, can't throw tantrums like II...she knows her limitations... and from her experience is trying to teach her lil sister...life is never a bed of roses...we always feel others are living a better life than ours... II see bala interacting with his parents but she don't see what her akka is loosing in the process... her simple wish of some quality time with her family is not getting fulfilled...now I'm feeling sad for her..

Akka is right in case of R&B...II knew how R&B behaved with his father from starting only... it was not a revelation for her...i hope she understands now and give the guy his space...vaise appa is happy seeing dude...did i read it wrong or what...

So so well portrayed. All the elements of a middle class wife's life. It's true that what we see on the outside is rarely what it actually is, within. I wanna express more but got an exam to study for tom morning. Kudos Nisha👏

VeeIyer: THANKS SO VERY MUCH for saying such nice things. I am happy you can see integrity in the character portrayals thats a HUGE compliment. I am a novice writer I write what my heart urges me to.

I am an Iyer and have lived in Delhi and know a million Punjabis besides that everything else is someone we know or have met. They ALL exist SOMEWHERE

Isruhi: Its not easy to transform your life instantly you know, after Bala's parents pass away, 10 more years? 12? Vandu may get some respite. By then the "first 10 years of married life" will be long gone

Enda vayasula enna pannumo adu 90% people are unable to (90% are not fortunate to have certain life events happen to them WHEN its supposed to)

Who runs away?

Nobody

Who constantly gripes and complains? Nobody

Why is II like this?

She has never been married before, the only married people she knows closely are Amma Appa and Akka-Athim. So many things are unknown to her in both those marriages

School of hard knocks will teach her.
She has EVERYTHING outwardly, but no peace at home
Vandu is fighting bigger battles.

In the beginning even that seems fun for a bit...the stolen romance, the feeling of not a care in the world.and similarly for the rich too...you feel you have the World in your hands to do as you please but internal politics the jealousies the sliminess...

So like is said rich and poor nothing is perfect...but then is jeevan ka yahi hai yahi hai rang roop!
