“SHRUTI: There is need to worry Iqbal! You don’t know papa. He is very strict about these things. He will think it a desecration of the violin to be played to Western tunes. Papa firmly believes that Classical Hindustani music, with its ragas and aalaaps, is the only kind of music that an artist of any worth should play. I don’t want papa to feel that I don’t care about his opinions, because I do. It’s just that I want to give this a try too. I just don’t know how to tell him in the right way! IQBAL: All ways are right ways, Shruti. He is your father, he will understand.” Question (i) Select the option that correctly identifies Shruti’s situation. A. confident B. indifferent C. content D. in a dilemma

Answer D. in a dilemma Shruti is caught in a painful dilemma. She genuinely loves and respects her father’s classical heritage, yet she experiences an equally compelling personal desire to explore modern Western fusion music with her friends.
