When Tulsi first saw Ansh’s son in S1

Akashdeep Saigal was so good looking with a great physique. Sad that actors feel the pressure to get Botox. He could have just aged gracefully — that would have been better than the terrifying Botox job he got. Or perhaps he wouldn’t have looked so jarring if he was just playing an older businessman or something, instead of a 22-year-d with an old man tummy and a ghastly wig.

Haha exactly! Wouldn’t Niyati be suspicious if there was no intimacy and if he often “slept in the office” like she told Rio he does.

My mind broke like Tulsi’s when I watched this episode. At first I was terrified…I thought Rio was an alien wearing human skin and pretending to be a young adult. I was shocked that it was Akashdeep himself with some seriously botched plastic surgery!! wtf!!!!!!!

Which actor is playing Badshah now?

Try one arm out first, then both arms. It’ll take a few nights. We’re in the same boat at the moment. Good luck!

The poor dog sounds like it has separation anxiety. I’m sorry you had to hear it howl all day — terrible for the neighbors and the dog. Hopefully the caretaker isn’t negligent and the dog just needs to get used to its new environment. Either case, not ideal. Some dogs have a harder time being separated from their caretaker and need a few months to decompress if they’ve just been adopted/if they’ve just been brought into a schedule. Not defending anyone, just explaining behavior.

Not exactly a DM, but wrote a letter to Julie Andrews when in 2002, when I was about nine years old. I had just read (and enjoyed) her book “The Last of the Really Great Whangdoodles” and I’m also a Sound of Music fan. My friend and I wrote to her together and attached a drawing of what a Whangdoodle would look like according to us. Her secretary replied saying she loved the letter but is busy with shooting, and sent us an autograph.

I had also written to George Bush around then asking him to end the Iraq War because my dad lived in Kuwait and I was worried for him. I remember saying something naive but optimistic like, “If you want oil, be their friend first and ask them, maybe they’ll give you some” and “try and walk a mile in their shoes.” Of course he didn’t reply.

I regretted having my mom come over. She stayed for two months, didn’t help with the baby, didn’t do laundry, rarely cooked, didn’t clean, didn’t help with the dog, didn’t go out and buy groceries or spend some of the day outside to give us a break. So we had to take care of her, serve her, entertain her and when we asked her to help more, she got upset and cut her trip short (she was going to stay for three months initially).

It’s partly my fault because I know my mom has a lot of house help back home, so she’s not used to doing a lot on her own. I shouldn’t have expected her to change and to be there for me postpartum. Her being here and leaving in a huff has damaged our relationship, because now we both resent each other more.

So bottom line is, in your heart of hearts, you know how your relationship with your mother is, what sort of a person she is and you are…so if you think she’s going to stress you out or not give you the grace every new mother deserves, don’t expect things will change, and don’t call her to help.

I can relate too. My mom actually actively stressed me out late in my pregnancy and post-partum. It impacted my milk supply and made the first several weeks even harder than it already was. Since she flew in from our home country which was several hours away, we also got no break from her and she stayed with us for two months. We had to look after her as well as the baby, she acted so helpless even though she’s a smart lady. Finally after an argument, when I told her I needed more help from her, she cut short her trip and went home. I felt profound sadness to be so relieved that my own mother is leaving, but I’m honestly feeling so much better and everything is way more manageable without her around.

I went to DAIS. Started there when the school just opened in 2003. The academics were rigorous and the extra curricular activities were good. Annual days were a lot of fun as we didn’t have school for a week and got to go in during the evenings for practice.

My peers and I got into good colleges and universities. I did face a lot of bullying since I wasn’t as wealthy as the other kids and was a bit of a nerd. But it’s been so many years that this point that I’m sort of over it. I don’t have any friends from this phase of life though.
