As the title appeals, ’Listen Didi…’ is a compilation of seven simple and small storiesnarrated in the form of women’s conversations, abominably referred to by many peopleas chugli. It is taking place in a fictional mohalla situated near a fictional urban posharea called Vilasniketan. The mohalla is a slum that contrasts a fast-movingmetropolitan area with a slum that is slow. Beneath this slow cluster of houses, slowerwomen are running at their best possible speed. And these seven stories depict someof such incidents that they would most probably describe as ''it’s every day''.Not necessarily but every story concerns distinct issues related to the lives of womensuch as domestic violence, sexual harassment, extra-marital affairs, love affairs, jobs,in-laws, education etc. in the backdrop of their underdeveloped social, education andfinancial conditions. Despite the meagre supply of opportunities and constant socialconditioning, they emit a frisk flair of change. They show early symptoms of truefeminism.
