Ranga’s Marriage Summary In English



- The story "Ranga's Marriage" takes place in the village of Hosahalli, which is now part of Karnataka.

- Ranga, the son of the village accountant, was the first person from the village to go to Bangalore for studies.

- When Ranga returned to the village after ten years, it was a significant event as English was not widely spoken in the village at that time.

- People gathered at Ranga's house to see him but left disappointed when they realized he hadn't changed physically.

- The narrator, named Shyama, stayed and spoke with Ranga, finding him to be worldly-wise and assessing people's worth.

- Shyama asked Ranga about his marriage plans, but Ranga expressed his desire to find a mature girl he admired rather than opting for arranged marriages.

- Distressed by Ranga's decision to remain unmarried, Shyama decided to find him a suitable bride, Rama Rao's niece Ratna.

- Shyama arranged for Ratna to come to his house and sing a song while Ranga was present.

- Ranga saw Ratna but stopped abruptly upon noticing him. Ranga expressed his hope that Ratna was not married, but Shyama informed him that she was already married.

- Shyama then went to an astrologer named Shastriji and coached him on what to say during a reading for Ranga.

- During the reading, Shastriji mentioned a girl with a name related to something found in the ocean, and the narrator remembered Ratna.

- Shastriji suggested that Ranga's thoughts were about someone like Ratna, leading to Ranga's surprise and happiness.

- On their way, they passed by Ratna's house, and Shyama confirmed that she was not married, making Ranga even happier.

- Ranga and Ratna got married based on the astrologer's prediction, and they later had a son named Shyama.

- Years later, Ranga invited Shyama to celebrate their son's birthday, where it was revealed that Ratna was eight months pregnant, and Ranga was leading a happy married life.
