Chapter 9. A Love Story

Ram and Nita fell in Love. But why could they not get married?

  • Because dad of Smita promised her with a man that paid the money that his dad asked but Ram hadn’t the money.

Nita is engaged to a rich and successful man who will pay her family 40,000 rupees. Do you think arranged marriages are a good idea?

  • I disagree because you can’t marry someone who don’t love, you have to choose the best person.

Why do you think Swapna Devi said this about his son: “perhaps death will be the best thing for him”

  • Because the boy couldn’t speak and he doesn’t have friends and family, and he thinks that the death is the best way.

In this chapter we see Thomas is really generous. Why?

  • Because with the money that they had wasn’t enough to help Nita and he decided to goes to the show to earn money to help her.

Why is this chapter particularly important?

  • The man who Ram give the money is a professor of English Literature and he helps Ram to pass one question of the programme.

How was the man of the hospital able to pay Thomas back?

  • At the end of the chapter we see that in the show Ram didn’t know the question and called that man to return his favor.
