Yes, she was but I thought things would get better with time. I changed my religion. I converted to Hinduism and we got married according to Hindu rituals.

My husband Gaurav, who doesn’t have the backbone to choose from, decided to stay with his mother. I always made fun of evil mother-in-law from Balaji’s daily soap, but never thought this would happen to me. She used to abuse and abuse me. In fact, I was the one who proudly told Gaurav that we would stay with the family. I will work on it. I really tried, but they were always bad for me and they never accepted me as part of the family. She used to taunt me ‘this does not happen in India, if you are from Iran then what do you know about India’s culture’
