Beautiful story Kavitha @Kavitha . Finished reading at one go. Characterisation was brilliant. Parvathams ever interference and thinking that she knows better for their children without taking in to account that they are grown up, gomathys astrological fanaticism, Vikram's taciturnity, malinis maturity, vedhas intelligence, manjaris shenanigans, raghavans responsible nature, Rajendrans balancing attitude and Gayathris selfish and bullying nature were shown so effectively that I felt like am in a big boss show. Brilliant and lucid writing. Romance was also very entertaining without being obscene. A thorough family drama rendered in a very interesting way. My favourite is Malinis, Everytime thinking from other person's angle before arriving at a conclusion is briliant. This attitude is not easy to pick at all. This story is too good to be true for a first timer. Kudos.
