...this too is yours. -

- Oh my God!

This is yours. -

- Thank you!

And check this out. -

- Saradindu? For her?

Inform your dentist

before you read that Bengali.

So tell me, how do you find

your city after so many years?

Let's see... the roads are less dug up.

The water's turned mineral,

the air's less polluted...

...and among fruits,

mangoes have become costlier.

And what else? What did

you do in the last two years?

I found a job after

the university...

What about you? -

- Well... umm...

...my story too has

been quite... you know...

Great. Writing the screenplays

of your lives together, are you?

Tell her! -

- See, the situation is a bit like...

...we're seeing each other.

'A bit' as in?

In grams or metric tonne? Though

I haven't been informed, so... -

Maya... -

- Maya.

She is not pissed off.

That's brilliant!

Congratulations! Something

worthwhile finally, both of you.

And as they say, you

may now kiss the bride.

Okay!

Stop it.

What? -

- Anyway, what about you?

What about me? Life

goes on. Radio station.

Chatting people up, playing

their requests, that's it.

Still single?

Sadly. Because you changed. -

- Cut the crap.

What about that cute guy,

is he still pursuing you?

Right, what was his name?

That guy...

Mr. Coward Lee. Did he

finally gather the courage?

No. He had managed to get my

email id and sent me a mail.

Doing something somewhere. -

- What did he write?

Is the knight with a shining guitar...

...returning with

Bengali alphabets?

Sir, I need to go back to India. -

- An unscheduled vacation?

Err... no Sir, a research assignment.

Hello. -

- Hello.

Namaskar, Sir.

Please come. Please take your seat.

He looks exactly like

Heynsman Sahib. Isn't it?

Gourhari? -

- Yes, you're right.

So what's your name, sahib? -

- Antony. Heynsman Antony.

He was born in a very wealthy

Portuguese family, Sir.

He came down to India in

the early nineteenth century.

Landed at Chandannagore, West Bengal.

Earlier it was known

as Phawrashdanga.

Though he was a businessman's son,

his main interest was music.

And he then went on to become

one of the main proponents...

...of the 'Kabigaan'

tradition of Bengal.

Kabigaan? -

- Yes... sort of...

...sort of troubadours

or minstrels, Sir.

They would get into

musical battles through songs...

...and the songs were mainly

about the Hindu gods and goddesses.

Hold on, let me get

this straight.

This is your dissertation topic?

Yes, Sir.

I feel that's a very

interesting topic but...

...couldn't you find something

else that has a little more...

...information available?

Which is exactly why

I need to go, Sir.

There is very little

information on the internet,
