We catch Reshmy Nikith during what is perhaps the busiest time of the year in her calendar. It is a week before the beginning of the new academic year. “I don’t know whether my two kids are excited about returning to school, but I certainly am,” she laughs. Her friend Gauri is not able to join us — she is held up at a college, in connection with a short-term course her son hopes to take. “Today is a wonderful day,” says Gauri, when we finally catch up.
