Answers
Explanation:
'Colours of Rainbow' by Chanchal Sharma is a story that brings out the angst of a man leading a monotonous, mediocre life as a clerk with only hope in his heart. He wants to find the meaning of life and delve deeper into himself.
The protagonist of the story is working as a clerk in an office. He has loads of work to do, but his pay is very meager. This becomes a sore point between him and his wife and they fight, sulk and generally feel discontented with life.
Their two children too are pulled into these unhappy surroundings.
The rainbow that appears in the sky after the rain takes the protagonist into his own world where he thinks about those carefree days where he really believed that the rainbow is a swing of good things.
He finally gets off his bad mood and reconciles with his wife bringing peace and harmony at home. This peace and harmony is what is required and is the actual rainbow.
