A young woman, neglected by her rakish husband, decides to ‘kill him with kindness’ and stuff him with food, another cooks manically, a third helps herself to money and small knick-knacks from her husband’s pockets where she finds the different scents of each of the women he has been with… Along with the husband is the ubiquitous mother-in-law who moves into the newly-married couple’s bedroom barely a month after they have set up home. Each vignette is, by turns, funny, poignant, macabre – a delicious spread, showcasing Bulbul Sharma’s mastery of the stories small actors and the drama of daily life.
