The article, “A blast from the past, and a little mischief in the air” (‘Open Page’, Nov.1) reminded me of a Tamil film where actor Janagaraj plays a character who is delighted that he has unbridled freedom when his wife is away from the house. After he sends off his wife, he returns home shouting loudly, “ En Pondatti Urukku Poyitta (my wife has gone to her hometown).” Times have changed now.
