Everyone is hungry. Everyone is irritable.

A typical day in an Indian family begins early, with the morning sun casting a warm glow over the household. The air is filled with the aroma of freshly cooked breakfast, often consisting of traditional dishes like idlis, dosas, or parathas. Family members gather for a quick breakfast together, sharing stories and discussing their daily plans. Rohini, a 35-year-old homemaker from Mumbai, shares her daily routine: "My day starts at 5:30 am with a quick prayer and some yoga. I then help my daughter get ready for school, while my husband gets ready for work. We have a quick breakfast together, and I spend the rest of the day managing the household chores, cooking, and taking care of my mother-in-law."
