Frames from the day
Haldi on the sand at eight in the morning. Turmeric, seawater and no plan whatsoever.
The milni on the lawn, two sets of uncles measuring each other very politely.
Sangeet ran past two. Her cousins had rehearsed for six weeks. His had not, and it did not matter.
Her chooda went on at dawn and did not come off for the rest of the trip.
Phere close to midnight under a mandap the wind kept lifting, and the pandit did not once look up.
