into an ocean...

and change the course

of my life

Akki! Can you hear me?

lt has happened earlier, doctor

Twice earlier,

we thought Nakul was dead

There was nothing to tell us

that he was alive

And he suddenly returns to life.

He says...

he has passed through some tunnel...

where there was a lot of light

and everything was very clear

Do you believe in such things?

l didnt earlier

But the last time Nakul

came back...

he told me that he had

met my elder sister

After just an hour,

l got a call from my village...

that my elder sister had passed away

lm Dr Akash Bhatnagar

ln any case, you dont need an

introduction in Dr Mayas ward

The child who was brought into

the lCU... what was his name?

Can l meet him?

Dr Maya used to ask about him

the moment she arrived too

She used to love him very much

l want to see Nakul

How is he now?

See for yourself

Hes been drawing

as if nothing had happened to him

You like to draw?

What are you drawing?

l dont know. lve been thinking

about it, ever since l came around

Last night you were shocked,

werent you uncle?

Last night? When?

When your glasses got wet

How do you know?

l was watching you

Watching me?

Yes, from the ceiling

Nakul, do your drawings,

talk less

Nurse, l have to talk to him.

You cant, doctor

We have strict instruction from

the hospital authorities

We must discourage patients

from talking like that

Talking like what?

Like Sister Martha used to

She used to record the experiences

of the dead who came back to life

She used to quiz them

in a way that would make them uneasy

But Sister Martha never met me.

Had she, ld have told her so much

l remember everything

that l had seen there

Doctor, l have to check on a patient

at ward two. lll be back soon

Do you know my name, Nakul?

Akash, Have you heard it before?

Akash

Akki

Mayas Akki?

Yes... Mayas Akki

l met Maya too yesterday

Where?

l dont know

lt was so bright there

and water everywhere

She was saying something?

What was she saying?

What was she saying, Nakul?

What was she saying, Nakul?

Akki!

Akki!

According to recent medical studies,

all those who have had...

near-death experience say that

theres a tunnel, brightness...

Thats what most of them say

l wonder why

Let me explain. Medical science

studies show that after death...

the cornea slowly shrinks and creates

a tunnel-shaped image in the brain

But Akash says the boy

remembers much more

Like, Akashs entry into the room,

watching him on the sly...

Could be. The body dies

but the brain doesnt die instantly

The brain saves those impressions

that the person sees before his death

When did he see a drop of water falling
