He asks It’s quite the honor to get a little extra time with the pandit (Anjul Nigam) and offering to drop him off at Home Depot earns Nalini some brownie points and the first understanding words of the day.There’s another important reason for attending Ganesh Puja in this episode of If she can find him, that is. This is not what Kamala needed to hear.Unlike the first few episodes of the show that gave viewers fairly clear answers by the end of the 30-minute run-time, this episode offers no resolutions to the characters.Devi is still as lost as she was before—even more so because she’s realizing how much she misses her dad and how she doesn’t have an outlet for that pain.Nalini is similarly alone in her grief—aside from Devi and Kamala, her immediate family seems to be far away and she has no one to share her loss with.Kamala is in a worse situation than she was in the previous episode—the one person who could have inspired her has pretty much told her to do an about-turn on her convictions.It will be interesting to see how the characters react to their circumstances in upcoming episodes.Build your custom FanSided TV email newsletter with news and analysis on Show Snob and all your favorite sports teams, TV shows, and more.Your privacy is safe with us.

Things are looking up!Kamala is the only one who attracts positive attention at Ganesh Puja—all because she’s engaged to an engineer she’s never met. But she hasn’t got time to worry about that as she has to dress up in Indian attire.

Maybe she just wants to talk about Mohan—whose loss the family isn’t handling very well on Nalini tries her best to keep calm, in the hopes of making a good impression and staying on everyone’s good side—one never knows when you will need these people!But it’s been a terrible day and she just needs one win—which she gets in the form of the pandit (priest). Ron explains that ivy league colleges do not want an Indian try-hard and he raises how her father died at a concert; he explains that if she’s willing to talk about her father, she would get in. And her longing for this is so etched on her face that even the pandit sees it.

She’s shunned by everyone around her and is desperately lonely.Kamala tries to put a positive spin on Jaya’s life—this could eventually be her life, after all—but Jaya point-blank declares that she wishes she’d listened to her family. At the Ganesh Puja event, they are approached by personally invasive aunties and when Kamala is introduced to them, she has a sinking feeling that she does not want an arranged marriage.Devi doesn’t think of herself as “Indian Indian” and when she catches up with her friend Harish, he surprisingly tells her that she shouldn’t be embarrassed to be Indian.I think that’s Devi’s issue — she doesn’t feel she can be American and Indian at the same time, but both cultures represent her.Pandit Raj, the spiritual leader at the event does a chant to the group.

Because he’s hiding in a room far away—he may have taken an Indian name but Ron’s doing nothing to be part of the community.When Devi finally discovers him and makes her pitch to get into Princeton, Ron is less than helpful.According to him, Devi’s stellar grades, hard work, determination, extra-curricular activities, and volunteering experience don’t make her stand out—she’s just another Indian girl applying for college.Instead, she should focus her application on her dead father and the loss of her mobility—something Devi absolutely refuses to do.
