He enjoys spending time with his college pals, negotiating various hazards that range from his wife’ s snooty friends to wild animals and even wilder humans! As he stumbles through hilarious situations, Joyappa tries, withimited success, to walk a fineine between having a good time and staying in his wife’ s good books. In his quaint, rustic style, Tilak Ponappa manages to create an unforgettable setting of incandescent beauty and memorable characters that are funny, charming and sweet— all at the same time.
