Since I saw how much fun my husband, Mr. Bhojwani was having, I decided to make a guest appearance on his infamous blog and kick in my two cents. My husband seems to have done a great job illustrating married life….from his perspective. Allow me to enlighten you about the flipside.
When our paths first crossed, Chandru dressed like a GQ model and carried an aroma that would make a rose jealous! There were the odd Sunday’s when he dressed like a bum to which he referred to as ‘Bhangi-Sunday’ which I learned to accept since relationships are all about give and take.
Now, married over a month, my once front page model now sports a gruff beard most of the week and the slim aerodynamic figure has been traded in for an Uncle like gut. I am fortunate enough to get a glimpse of that dashing suitor who wooed me once in a while when we enjoy a night out but now, every day is ‘Bhangi Sunday!

Marriage Tip 12:
That which once glittered, is later a bhangi!
