Ayyayo, from synopsis seminar to final defence is supposed to take six months, but cheppu, in reality it stretches to a year or more waiting for those examiner reports! They sit on the files like my regulars sit in my salon chair—not in a hurry to leave. I tell my students, the open viva is the easy part; the real tension is feeding chai and patience to your supervisor while we chase the university. Just last week, I had to personally call a professor in Delhi to remind him about a report, same as reminding Auntie Shobha about her monthly threading appointment.
