Many people believe that, "Sex is the ultimate pleasure of life a man and a woman come together with the whole purpose of deriving such pleasures. They hold hands to heighten the intensity of life. The real happiness lies in touching each other` Many such things are said while considering the relationship between a man and woman. But, trying to satisfy the lust for sexual pleasures should never be the ultimate aim of married life. If we uplift ourselves too much in an attempt to touch the sky then we are sure to fall down. Many people do achieve this, but when one is beginning his/her married life then this achievement is almost impossible. It is after spending 1020 years together in a married life, after going through moments of happiness and sorrow together, over and over again we experience the serenity of the night. Undemanding love is like the waxing moon and not like the wanning moon.

प्रेम म्हणजे शरीर सुख आणि मानसिक सुख यांचा ताळमेळ घालता येणे होय. ज्याला या गोष्टीचा समतोल साधता आला त्याच्या जीवनात दु:ख आपले नाक खुपसण्याचा प्रयत्न करत नाही हाच सार खांडेकर यांनी या कादंबरीतुन व्यक्त केला आहे.
