I keep doing that. Thanks again for the translation. :) @OJ: Thank you...hmm, didn't think of that. Maybe, I will one of these days. @Banno: Thank you. There was a photograph. It was part of an exhibition on the Nizams that was running at the museum in Delhi two years ago. It had just the three wives and they looked so similarly young and vulnerable, haunted even. Yet there were hints of their different personalities as well -- one had something strong about the eyes, another had more expressive hands. It was very intriguing. @kuffir: Yeah, I think I edited slightly after publication in Kritya. I keep doing that. Thanks again for the translation. :)

Got me wanting to see the photograph. If there was one. I liked the end particularly, the idea of the girls being released from purdah into the cameraman's flash. Really nice.

'pudding' has changed to 'kheer', i see..that is translatable..perhaps, you edited after publication? thanks for posting it again. i find slight changes from the poem published on kritya (which i could last night, but not now). ‘pudding’ has changed to ‘kheer’, i see..that is translatable..perhaps, you edited after publication? thanks for posting it again.
