Question

why do janaki and kavita become serious when they tie the rakhis onto each others wrists?

1. they must focus on trying to see in the dim room.
2. they realize the bracelets are tied on too tight.
3. they worry they made a mess with the powder.
4. they are both making an important promise.

Explanation:

Rakhi (a traditional Indian bracelet) is exchanged with the significance of making a solemn, important promise—typically of care, protection, or lifelong bond between the individuals. This meaningful act leads to a serious demeanor, unlike the other trivial, context-unrelated options.

Answer:

D. They are both making an important promise.
