The estranged relationship between Hari and his wife was in a way instrumental in making Adam go astray. At the pretext of a cultural exchange programme Mr. Devrajan requested Hari Bedi to send Adam to India. Hari Bedi agreed for he thought that his son should know his roots and become aware of family values that were still a pillar of strength in the Indian socio-cultural milieu. And awareness did strike Addy - from 'a heck of it' journey to India to the realization of a strong bond betwixt the family members of Mr. Devrajan's household.

But most of all his own self - his gratification permeated around everyone - was responsible for the realisation. A few weeks of stay made Adam feel that he would be returning to the U.S as a changed person, someone who had understood the importance of family values. And Adam also knew that whenever he would have a family, it would be a happy one like Mr. Devrajan's.
