सुनो, मैं सबको झूठ बोलता हूँ कि सब कुछ ठीक है, लेकिन सच में, मुझे तो अपने करियर में ठहराव महसूस हो रहा है। जब भी परिवार इकट्ठा होता है, मेरी ज़िंदगी की उलझनें एक जाँच परख की तरह होती हैं। कोई और रिश्तेदार की नौकरी, मेरी किसी और रिश्तेदार की शादी, और मैं वहाँ सिर्फ चुप रहता हूँ, जैसे मैं बस कोई भाग्य का अज्ञात साथी हूँ। ये रोज़ रोज़ की तुलना, और परिवार वालों की अपेक्षाएँ मुझे खा जाती हैं। और यहाँ म...
