The Plot
Right through the ages, Love has bee omnipresent in various forms. In this story, I am not trying to portray the joy and pain of love or compare it with the everlasting romantic tales. I am going to take you through a unique story about a normal boy and a girl , who went through the magical journey of love. Our expedition takes us first to a small beach town called Pondicherry, situated in the south coast of India, where we find the hero of our story, Jason Joseph . Raised in an upper middle class Christian family, Jason spent his childhood happily studying in a boy s school. As a bright and well mannered kid, he spent most of his time in loneliness, trying to isolate himself from the clutches of social life, because he had a big complex about his stout frame. He even contemplated becoming a priest after high school but a strong support from his family motivated him to overcome his problems and start all over again. They sent him to Chennai , to learn his trade in engineering, hoping the dynamics of the city life would make a difference to his somber personality. Jason s college days were exciting and his teenage life finally meant something to him. However, the traditional aspects of Tamil culture had a strong influence in his college to such an extent, that it prohibited boys and girls interacting with each other. Anyway Jazz as his fondly known among his friends was not very mindful of this fact and in a way felt comfortable in dealing with such rules as he had limited exposure mingling with girls. Now, turning our ship to the south west, we land up in the cosmopolitan city of India, Bangalore , the hometown of our lovely heroine, Reena Karupaiya . Reena was an outgoing, modern day girl from a middle class family, originally from Tamil Nadu. Hailing from a traditional Hindu family with strong values, Reena was a balanced individual who managed to maintain a traditional city girl lifestyle. She had spent her final school years in Trichy , located in the heart of Tamil Nadu with her grandparents , who had moulded her with strong cultural values. Although Reena was a smart kid, her childish innocence and honesty made her the favourite among other students. An interesting fact about her was her strong affinity towards Christianity as she embraced GOD as one. So how did these two individuals influenced by different cultures meet ? How were they able to overcome their differences and fall in love? Did they marry? Well, that is what you re going to find out.
