“The Limping Bride,” 9/10. Excellent. A widower marries off his alcoholic son to the limping bride in question. It never quite goes where you think and makes fantastic use of Swayambunath stupa.

“Deepak Misra’s Secretary”, 7.5/10. A man fends off his ugly secretary while pining for his white ex-wife. I don’t really see what Bandana-ji sees in Deepak tbh.

“The Cooking Poet”, 9/10 — an elder statesman poet burns with envy and admiration for a younger genius that he mentors. Beautifully sketched, in particular Acharya’s appraisal of Giri’s poems. He tries and fails to write an epic, making his final set of honors ring hollow.
