U squeeze my tears out

Wrinkle Free
I am a television freak and have watched as many sane and insanely funny sitcoms and dramas as possible.
On the very day my final semester exams were done with, I got hooked onto one hindi sitcom - Kyunki Saas bhi kabhi Bahu thi ( Because the mother in law was once a daughter in law too)in particular thanx to a nearly deaf neighbour.
The story has skipped ahead by 10-20 yrs thrice so far and still maintains this grandma who is rumoured to be 150-200 yrs old. There are great grandparents who haven’t aged either by looks or canes.
The actress playin the protagonist's role (Tulsi -the main daughter in law), finally left the show after a 1000 odd episodes. With a new actress in, the script had to be rewritten, cats were bought in as props and hopefully, I shall be rid of this serial madness.
The re-incarnation of the character Tulsi is obviously another face,another figure. And that’s when the insanity begins. A cat loving, eerie dude barges in claiming her to be his beloved wife and here, starts another saga where she has to proove herself.
What am wondering is that this Tulsi character is supposedly 60 +yrs and the guy claiming to be her husband is obviously is his mid 40’s, meaning his wife to be around same age. So, while no one there has realized this point, this has had a profound effect on me...how do v really proove a person's age?
FYI, the original Tulsi has returned to the show and so, am hooked on to it again, even if only to gauge the width of her hips & her shoulder blades!! also, the storyline has got meanin again!!
