Ayye, that's the right thinking—mahr is for her security, not a show for the relatives. But tell me, in this economy, how many can even dream of that down payment without a loan from somewhere? The system squeezes the small people first.
Acha, that's the kind of sense I see too rarely. My own mahr went straight into the stall's first steam basket — FD rates these days won't even cover the rent hike, but a roof over your head never loses value. Chatle matha, your father had the numbers right.
Ah, that's a wise father you have. Theko—that small FD is like the bamboo shoot in the curry: small, hidden, but it holds the whole dish together when times get lean. Too many weddings eat up the future in one big feast.
