Lilavati was born to a Keralite Christian family long established on both sides of the Indian Ocean. Her distant paternal ancestors were merchants who arrived in colonial Kenya at the turn of the 19th century, though they had been long prosperous on the Malabar coast for centuries. On her mother's side, Lilavati's ancestry can be traced back to the Kings of Karnakata. Since starting a family of her own, Lilavati has carefully constructed an idyllic homelife for her family. Family dinners, outings, games and movies are cornerstones of her parenting style and attempts to create a cohesive family unit. Apart from the textbook terms though, Lilavati is a deeply affectionate and devoted mother and wife who always has time for her family. | Lilavati was born to a Keralite Christian family long established on both sides of the Indian Ocean.

Anik and Lilavati's eldest child and only boy, Anil is very much his parents' child. Playful, intelligent and well adjusted, Anil has always been a strong child with the best of his parents shared traits. A boy rapidly approaching sixteen, he values his independence and privacy but jokes with his parents and likes to discuss with them intellectual or academic topics. | |PICTURE=Anik.jpg | ||

Intelligent and strong willed, Anika has always been creative, imaginative and independent. A bit shy, a bit isolated, Anika has somewhat struggled in her development as a social being, especially at school among her peers. In this regard, Lilavati's training as a clinician and instincts as a mother diverge and trying to see her daughter from the difficult transitions of becoming a young woman has been one of her greatest challenges, one that is not yet over. | |BLURB=Anik Thangavel: A British civil engineer of Tamil descent, Lilavati and Anik were introduced to each other when Lilavati was staying the summer with an Aunt in London. Anik was quickly enamored with the Kenyan medical student but Lilavati stayed reticent for weeks before she allowed him to take her on a date. After two years, great distances and "a sickening amount of flowers", Lilavati accepted Anik's third marriage proposal. The start of the Dominion War threw off their wedding plans but they continued to remain in contact, with Anik even enlisting in Starfleet, saying that it would be "bad form" for his fiancé to be the one being shipped off to war. A year into the war and several harrowing battles, Lilavati and Anik finally tied the knot in a small ceremony on Starbase 375. After the battle of Ricktor Prime, Lilavati was feared dead for several days before her escape pod was found. A few months after the end of the war, Lilavati resigned her commission and returned to Earth, where she married Anik in a traditional c Syro-Catholic ceremony. During their years away from Starfleet, the two had three children together and Anik worked on several large irrigation projects on Earth while Lilavati finally finished her training as a psychiatrist. Those fifteen years were happy ones and their marriage is strong and affectionate. | ||

Raising a young child was always Lilavati's favorite aspect of motherhood. When she and Anik tried for a third child they got literally a little bundle of joy. Sweet, affectionate, sensitive and perceptive, Roshini's parents have doted upon her since the day she was born and they have only grown more attached. | {{Relationship | ||
