One Hour, Three Times a Week
Naresh Lamba - a private tutor - is put in charge of two rather unruly boys while conflicts between Hindus and Sikhs continue to make the headlines.
Sonal Kohli tells the gentle story of an extended family that lives in the same house in Delhi over three decades. There are nine stories in all but we have selected five.
Delicate and finely textured, the stories lay bare the complexities of class and culture and the difficulties as well as excitements of change, even as it evokes loves and triumphs, the pull of incongruous desires and the tragedies of everyday life.
