DAKSH

Daksh was a forty-five-year-old man—tall, muscular, with broad shoulders and powerful arms. Though his age showed on paper, he looked far younger than his years. As the village sarpanch, authority came naturally to him; it reflected in his posture, his confident walk, and the way people fell silent at his presence. His deep, commanding voice was strong enough to quiet an entire gathering with a single word.

NEIL

Neil was Daksh’s only son. He had completed his studies in the city and was intelligent, yet emotionally conflicted. His wife’s name was Naina. During his time in the city, he had fallen deeply in love with a girl named Sneha—and even after his marriage, he continues to remain in a relationship with her. However, his father forcefully arranged his marriage to Naina, binding him to a life he never truly chose.

RUPA DEVI

Rupa Devi was Daksh’s wife—a sharp-minded and cunning woman. Poison and bitterness were the only things she ever had to offer her daughter-in-law. Her words were often laced with cruelty, and her presence carried an air of constant hostility within the household.

NAINA

Naina was Neil’s wife—fragile and soft, like a gentle breeze. There was an innocence about her that made her stand apart. Her eyes held a quiet sparkle, capable of expressing emotions without the need for words, revealing both her vulnerability and her silent strength.
