Suresh declined, which led to a heated exchange. "I had already eaten and suggested she eat and rest," Suresh recounted. Angered by his refusal, Nalini reportedly accused him of preferring his mother's cooking over hers, escalating the argument.
"In a fit of rage, she grabbed a pair of scissors and attempted to stab me in the neck," Suresh explained. He managed to evade the initial attack but sustained stab wounds on his jaw, hands, and back during the struggle that ensued, reported TOI.
