Indian families often follow traditional practices like celebrating festivals, observing fasts, and performing rituals. Festivals like Diwali, Holi, and Navratri are celebrated with great enthusiasm, with families coming together to share food, gifts, and joy. Many families also observe traditional rituals like the morning aarti (prayer) and the evening puja (worship).
"Wait, let me have chai first," is the standard response to any crisis, big or small. The evening chai is a ritual. It is when the family convenes. The television blares daily soaps or cricket matches, but the real drama happens over the biscuits. It is during these fifteen minutes that the father vents about his boss, the mother plans the weekend menu, and the children negotiate for extra pocket money.
