If you feel you don’t get privacy in a joint family of maximum 4-5 members, and think staying with your in-laws suffocates you, 
then you must pay a visit to Dharward. In Lokapur, 30 kilometres from Dharwad, lives the ‘Narasinganavar Family’. This family, which traces its lineage back to the 16th century, consists of as many as 140 members. All of them stay in a single house. Speaking to TSI, Manju Narasinganavar, one of the family members, says “It is fun to be at home. It is like celebration every day”. Agriculture is the main source of income for this family and they together own about 300 acres of land. As they live far away, they have taken a house in Dharwad exclusively for their children’s education. Here they don’t feel suffocated, neither do they yearn for privacy. Though many of the in-laws stay here, as Manju says, “patience is the key to the success of our family ties”.
