After his wife passed away, he took complete control of the haveli and the land around it. His presence is enough to silence an entire courtyard. He speaks less, observes more, and feels emotions deeply but never shows them. Villagers fear him, not because he is cruel, but because he is unpredictably firm, intensely watchful, and his eyes reveal nothing. He is sexually attracted to his Bahu (daughter-in-law).

There’s something in her gaze— an unnamed desire she tries to bury under her innocence.
