The next moment he gets a call from Priya [Reyanshi’s assistant] who asks her to come to Reyanshi’s home since she is breaking things at home and in much angry mode. He goes to her home and finds that she is crying. She hugs him while he supports her. He tries to make her calm but she continues to cry. He thinks she is hungry so they can eat something from her favorite tiffin box and urges her to stop crying. He speaks of life divided in four parts in the same way of the tiffin box. He suggests the first part is a bit sour, second – instinctive reaction [cites Roti as an analogy], and then the third part on how we learn and realize on over reacting to a situation. He puts forward a Gulab Jamun and she asks what is the meaning of sweetness in relation. He calls the last part is love and once you realize its importance and doesn’t bother about other people.
