Choose with your heart – A man is worried and tells his wife that his widowed mother is to move from the village to the city to live with them. His wife is happy because she has never met her husband’s mother and a week later welcomes the old woman with open arms. The old mother looks at her suspiciously because she doesn’t share their ethnicity and believes she just wants to get her son’s money.
