Why have we become so obstinate, so ruthless, so uncaring and so disdainful? While all these (dis)qualities don't augur for Moushumi Chatterjee's behaviour when her 45-year-old daughter Payal died on December 13, some of them certainly do. I cannot fathom her absentia from the final rites, till date.
What has come to my notice now is even more perplexing. Her son-in-law Dicky Sinha tells me that Moushumi did not even attend the 13th day puja, which he had informed her about. Not only Moushumi, but even her husband and younger daughter Megha were conspicious by their absence.
"Honestly, I really cannot care for such people. I did whatever I could. I spent very heavily on her treatment, I did not attend my sister's wedding in Kolkata- I mean what more could I do than pray, which also I did. Destiny had other plans, it's okay- but Moushumi Chatterjee's plans I never understood," says Payal's husband, Dicky.
'"There has been not a single word of communication from their side after Moushumiji's husband and Megha left the crematorium," Dicky adds.
Moushumi had filed a complaint against Dicky that he was not looking after her in her illness, but the Court had later ruled in Dicky's favour, saying that this family dispute should be resolved amicably.
