It is difficult for girls to leave their family and move into a new home. She obviously has a lot of expectations from her new family – but this new family also have a lot of expectations from her. In the middle of all this – the new settling in, expectations – the one person a girl may look up to apart from her husband’s support is –

her nanad!!

NANAD, sister of the husband!!! “JANTE TU SAB HONGEN”. She is the one who can guide or help her new bhabhi to adjust in their new home – new family. But the big question is ‘Do these types of Nanads exist on this planet????’

Generally people have a very negative image of Nanad. She is supposed to be ‘evil’, ‘manipulative’ and ‘cunning’ – yeh hum nahi keh rahe – ‘yeh loog kehte hain’ – but that’s not always true! In reality – many people find their best friends in their nanads – a friend to share their secrets – or a friend that shares her brothers’ secrets with the bhabhi!

So next time someone says to you: ‘apni nanad se bachke rehna – here’s what you need to tell them ;)’

NANAD HONEY KE FAIDAY:-

1.    MORAL SUPPORT: (SATH NIBHANA WALI)

The girl who guides her new bhabhi and tells her everything about her new home so it will be easy for her to adjust. Nanad is the best moral support for every newly married girl.

2.    COOKING PARTNERS: (KITCHEN MAI MIL KE TABHAI KARNA)

Kitchen mey *new experiments* karna. It is the best time where Nanad and bhabhi make their bond strong by sharing their good and bad experiences regarding cooking.

3.    SHOPPING PARTNERS: (MIL KEY PASEY URANA)

Always ready to go anywhere with you. She never says no for a shopping trip. She has an idea about latest fashions and gives you the best advice just same as your friend gives you before marriage.

4.    PAMPER YOUR KIDS: (APKI TENSION KO SAMBHALNA)

The best part of having a Nanad is she can pamper your kids a lot. So that their bhabhi will take “THORI SUKOON KI NENDH”. She loves your kid and same as the kids love her. She takes care of your children’s just like these kids are her own property.

5.    CHATTING PARTNERS: (MIL KEY BURAYAIN KARNA)

Everyone loves to do chatting but there must be some acha wala partner whom we can do daily chit chat. There are different people whom you can do chatting but Nanad is the one you can easily do gossips because some things are only understood by girls.

6.    DIET PARTNER: (DIET KE NAM PE SAB KUCH KHANA)

If society makes you feel like a MOTI and you need to hit the gym asap, your Nanad will be your best partner. You go the gym for reducing weight but because of strong relation sometimes you just eat your favourite stuff with her and then tell everyone “HUM TU DIETING PAR HAIN”.

7.    TAUGHT YOUR HUSBAND: (HAMESHA BHABHI KI SIDE LENA)

Nanad sister of your husband so she has a better idea about his brother’s thinking. Nanad is the one who taught his brother and tells him that boys and girls are different, tells him to support his wife.

8.    TEAM MATE: (SATH REHNEY WALI)

Girls have always the best team. As your Nanad is also a girl so it will easy for you to make a strong team with her and run the whole world too. Sometimes she will against her brother just to give complete support to you.

Not every Nanad is evil –  there are some or most Nanads who really have a strong relationship with their bhabhi’s. Treat them like your own sister and they will be yours forever! So if you have a Nanad who takes care of you – and is a sister to you – share it with them – and share lots of happiness!

Here’s a big shout to all the lovely Nanads out there!
