Identity
At the basic level, things seem fine. But the moment you move higher, reality hits. Programs are poorly managed — late-night practices, chaotic outstation trips, and international tours where the money collected never matches the shabby facilities provided. You’re forced to swallow every discomfort just to stay in the system. Doing an arangetram here is itself a huge risk — the ‘shop’ opens only after 8pm and shuts by 11pm, and to pull it off, you’re expected to sacrifice your regular school life. That’s how clumsy and disorganized things are. And then there are the so-called senior parents — whether they’ve completed arangetram or are just hanging around for years — their jealousy shows the moment a truly talented girl rises. They spin gossip, weave stories, and scheme to pull her down, all so their own child can climb up the ladder".
