Marriage & Masti
by Nisha Sharma
I just needed a giggle, a laugh, a grin. Sharma delivered. Simple.
Out of the three men, I think I related to Deepak the most (except for the rich part, and the successful part, and the arranged marriage part, okay maybe we’re not the most in common… ); but I genuinely related to his thoughts and behaviors because I’ve had the same. I’ve been in those positions. I get it. I’m glad he was able find something between him and Veera. My wife is my best friend; Deepak and Veera just had to realize they could be both best friends and partners.
Now to the spice: less than the previous two, but I also caught myself skipping the spice to get to the banter because if Nisha Sharma knows one thing, it’s BANTER! I caught myself yelling (cackling) “SAAAAME” while reading.
I truly believe its the best way that Sharma could have remade the Shakespearean stories she wanted to share. If there’s one thing the South Asian culture does well, it’s take their generational trauma and make jokes out of it.
Also I should mention, a big middle finger to Veera’s dad. We all know that one Indian uncle. You know who he is.
