Sleeping together?


I utterly love this movie, but since I only speak English and Spanish I assume that I'm still missing a lot in translation. At the end, when Raj tells Namrata that his mother is ready to meet/welcome her as a daughter-in-law...are they in bed together? Is it implied (or state outright) that Raj has been spending the night or that they're sleeping together? Namrata seems somewhat strait-laced and traditional throughout the movie, but is she OK with sleeping with Raj because she's not a never-been-married virgin? Or am I misinterpreting that scene?

I hope someone -- maybe someone who speaks Hindi? -- can help me out with this, 'cause I'm kind of puzzled! (Also, the song they sing at the school -- do those strings of letters [ABBG, and so forth] mean something, or are they random? That song makes almost no sense in English, even though it's fun to watch!)

No it wasn't implied that they were sleeping together, I highly doubt that they did or would. Any form of sex is highly taboo and strictly considered very wrong in Indian culture so I don't think that they would try to imply that they were sleeping together, I think that Raj just came in early one morning to Namrata's house to surprise her maybe by giving her the bangle, that's how I interpreted it at least, Namrata may have given him an extra key to the house or something or maybe she woke up opened the door for him and was lying down again in bed when he gave her the bangle, that's what I think at least. There was never any implication whatsoever about sleeping together.

I love your screen name!

and don't forget that Namarata wouldn't even kiss Raj on the lips. So sleeping together? - no way.
