The Sharmas live in a three-bedroom apartment. The grandparents occupy the master bedroom , not out of comfort, but as a spatial symbol of respect. Every morning, the grandmother (Dadi) performs Puja (prayer) before anyone turns on the geyser. The father (Anil) leaves for his IT job, but not before touching his parents’ feet.

He quickly switches tabs. His father, sitting in the living room, watches the news (debates on inflation). Rohan hears his father yell, "These kids today have no focus." Rohan rolls his eyes but mutes his mic. The daily story of the Indian teen is the conflict between aspirational global culture and familial surveillance. Chapter 5: The Sacred and the Secular at Dusk (7 PM – 10 PM) The Aarti: At dusk, many Hindu families perform Sandhya Aarti (evening prayer).
