If your little one keeps crying, try rocking him in a pram over an uneven surface— the gentle sway combined with a bumpy path can calm a colicky baby.
Ishita Dutta, who plays Anju in the Drishyam finale, admits that Vayu’s relentless fussing pushed her to the brink. When she reached out to Kajol for help, the veteran actress simply said, “Wait, wait, I know.”
Kajol’s advice was straightforward: place Vayu in the pram, hop onto a rocky path, and let the irregular motion soothe him. The uneven surface mimics the natural rocking of a womb, releasing trapped gas and easing abdominal pressure— the real culprits behind colic.
The technique is cheap and safe: use a small stone trail, a wooden plank with a few bumps, or even a textured cushion on a stroller. Give it a try during nap time or the first hour after feeding; if your baby settles, keep a spare stone path handy. Remember, every infant reacts differently, so observe and adjust.
So, next time you’re staring at a crying tot, grab a sturdy pram, find a little rough terrain in your garden or a park, and give that rocking trick a go. It’s a low‑tech, low‑cost hack that could turn a sleepless night into a peaceful lull.
