You have the poem 'Gautam Tum Bane Mahan' where the author displays feminist colours when she sides with the character's wife, Yashoda. She questions the 'Indian wife syndrome' with the poem 'Mard hu Mard' and then she shows her softer shades as a grandmother, finding an answer to her two-and-half-year-old grandson's question "Why is Nani's house so far?" in the poem 'Masum Prashan'. To top it off, when she becomes a grandmother for the second time and has the tough job of taking care of her two-month-old grandson all by herself, she thrives in it with the poem 'Nana Jinn', which is a rollicking satire.
