Ashwin and Ashok.
Ashwin and Ashok.
Ashwin was the first son of an industrialist Madhan Chand Jain. M.C. Jain was the fifth son of a hard working baniya family migrated from Rajasthan to Bangalore. M.C.Jains father was a scrap merchant and father and all the children were in the business. M.C.Jain was good at finance and he had an innate knack for attention to details. M.C.Jain was very systematic in day to day activities and followed certain habits very religiously. His father appreciated M.C.J for his obedience and following the system very carefully. He used to tell his community people that M.C.J was greatly responsible for the success of the family business. M.C.J was not having any relaxation habits or hobbies. His general knowledge was limited. Observing his smartness a rich Marwari wanted to give his daughter Pushpa who was a double P.G holder in Literature and History. After the marriage with the father in laws financial support M.C.Jain started a small Iron ore smelting industry in Chattisgarh. In twenty five years his industry has grown considerably. Ashwin was a pet child of his father. He studied in the best convent in Bangalore. All his class mates were from very rich elite families. He had many interests. But M.C.J was very particular that Ashwin should become a Mechanical Engineer and take over the business from him and take it to greater heights. Ashwin was very much scolded and many times M.C.J has refused to talk to Ashwin if he saw him wavering or not so responsible (in his view point). This made Ashwin feel guilty and he took pains to make his dad happy. He worked hard and did his B.E Mech from a prestigious college in Bangalore. Though he had a flair for manufacturing efficient Boilers ( his project in his B.E. was boiler up gradation) he wanted to please his dad and took an advanced diploma in cost effective iron ore smelting and casting. Ashwin is married to a rich Marwari girl from a NRI family. His wife Sika is a hindi poetess and studied comparative poetry from Oxford. Pushpa liked her very much. Sika feels very much empty after marriage. She is suffering from migraine. They have one child Raghul who is very demanding and Sika is not able to handle him. She gives in to all his demands and feels confused. Ashwin also feels something is missing in life. He started drinking and loses his temper often. Then he concentrates in his business and one of his quality of being perfect in all things brings lots of success but some where the happiness and peace was eluding. He is not having any close friends.
