Scene DescriptionThe groom turns out to be a lunatic and the women in the house are struck with despair at the prospect of the girl being left unmarried at the altar. Provincial traditionalism in Hindu society requires a girl to be married at the altar on the chosen auspicious moment or she must remain unmarried for the rest of her life and so incur social opprobrium for herself and her family. Pulu solicitously approaches Apu and an agreement is obliquely made. Apu marries Aparna. (4/15)
