Unlike Hollywood, where affairs lead to happy divorces, the Upper Assamese storyline almost always ends in tragedy. The reason is the stigma of "Ghor-bhangar" (destroying the home).
This paper explores the evolving dynamics of romantic relationships and "extra" or non-traditional liaisons in the Upper Assam region. By examining the friction between deep-rooted patriarchal family structures and the influx of modernity, this study analyzes how romantic storylines in Upper Assam navigate the liminal space between rigid social expectations and individual desire. The paper draws upon local literary tropes, the impact of the tea-tribe culture, and the rising influence of social media to contextualize how discreet relationships are formed, sustained, and perceived in contemporary society.
