hey there this is your answer...!!!

Main character in "Matchbox"

Married to Ajit who is from a wealthy family

Good looking

Live in a joint family with more than 50 members

They live on the third floor of their three storied house

From a poor family

Widowed mother

Married on the strength of her good looks

Financially dependent on Ajit

She has great love for her mother

Unable to send her any money without Ajit's consent

Husband embarrasses / ridicules her about her background

She speaks her mind

Nobody attacks her outright

They use only indirect comments to hurt her

Her reaction of setting fire to her sari frightens Ajit

If she dares, she can make some change

According to the author, how she behaves after this incident is disappointing

Doesn't want to come out of her colorful shell

Not ready to come out of her comfort zone (Ref to 3L's)

She enjoys the false image of a queen in a wealthy family and the wife of a large hearted, broadminded husband

Unless she dares to let others know about the reality, no change will happen

Nomita is a representative of Indian women

Not ready to shatter her fake image, and without it change in society is not possible

Like matchboxes, women do not utilize their full potential.

hope this helps you..!!!
