The Rubber Stamp Kritika Walia

Saumya was a teenager facing the dilemma as to why her friend tried to commit suicide. Her grandfather had a similar dilemma. She had less experience to find the answer to several questions arising in her mind. Her grandfather had only one question but several answers to it because of his experiences. She had to know the meaning of life and he had to find the answers for her. Finally, he decided to revisit his life's experience again, but this time as an outsider along with his granddaughter. Did they finally reach the point where all their questions and answers made sense? Is self-immolation caused because we merely are "The Rubber Stamp" of other's opinions on us?
