Joy in the Coffee Season

‘I thought you were doing particularly well this year. We seem to have a good crop and you were working so hard. What has gotten into you?’ said his wife. Joyappa almost answered that it was beer, popcorn and lots of delicious meat that had ‘gotten into’ him. In the nick of time, he realized the question was rhetorical. So, he maintained a stoic silence. Joyappa, well-known to everyone as Joy, is a coffee planter and family man from Coorg (Kodagu) in Karnataka, who valiantly tries to stay in his wife Susheela’s good books. Susheela seems to have the uncanny ability to know when he is up to mischief but has a difficult time dealing with his immature behaviour. Although Joy works very hard to harvest his crops during the crucial period known as ‘The Season’ and starts the season with the best of intentions, his irrational schemes, quirky friends and unconventional methods lead to many embarrassing and comical situations. Joy and his ‘supporting cast’ are back in this hilarious sequel to Joy in Coorg. Follow Joy’s journey as he wreaks havoc at his son’s posh boarding school, tolerates his wife’s preachy relatives and snobbish friends, makes history in the field of medicine, alienates some people and befriends others, and generally has a grand time as he good-naturedly muddles through life.
