Bharathi has come to Bengaluru after nine years with her husband, Sharath. She had promised her father that she would repay his dues to Mr Govinda Shetty. Only then did her father die in peace. Mr Govinda Shetty inherited the small grocery shop, “Bharath Stores” and was carrying on the family business with pride and such elan that the bus stop in front was named after it as ”Bharath stores stop” After alighting near that stop, she was surprised to find no trace of it anywhere there. The queries to that effect went in vain.
