Not too long ago a retired schoolteacher came to see us. She was holding a bundle of papers like they were a court notice, her hands were trembling, just a little bit, you could see it. Her son had pushed her to get a Full body checkup in Kolkata, and now the report had three … Read more
Let’s just be honest here. If you grew up in a Bengali home, the idea that your lovingly made maachher jhol or that Sunday mangsho could be silently working against your heart feels almost insulting.
