Why be an MCP ?

Recently, I saw a tamil film named "Sillunnu oru Kadhal" again. Beautiful songs, Good looking cast, all in all I enjoyed the movie.

If you haven't seen the movie, its about a rather happily married couple with a young daughter. The wife discovers that during his younger college days, her husband fell for a girl and even tried to marry her but, the family of that girl forces the couple to break up. After few years, the guy gets married to the wife through the traditional Indian arranged marriage, but the girl is still single. On reading his diary in which he has written that if he could live for just a day with that girl, his life would have been complete, wife decides to give them a day together. and so on... go check wikipedia to know how it ends. But, i would say watch the movie, it is good.

But, what I was concerned was would a husband do this for his wife? I actually asked my husband, if he would give me a day to be with my first crush. And he said that ( i accept that he was kidding but still...) he would beat me up. Any film, any story, any country ( i think, anyways, 100% true for India), a married man can stray( it is his manliness, I guess...) but a wife should never (she should be sati-savithri)

For those who don't know, Sati was an idiot, who committed suicide because, her father made fun of her husband. I mean will there be any father-in-law who hasn't felt that the guy is not good enough for his precious daughter? Savithri was better, she just followed the death and brought her dead husband back.

Ok... On this note, I am signing off
