When numerous bits of clouds

Gather up in a sky

We call it the 'monsoon'

And when numerous words gather up

We call it a 'novel'

A love triangle leading to a murder, not new in the city.

Police suspects, Gagan Sirdar's murder is due to an illicit love affair.

Documents say Suranjana and Monosheej have been married for about ten years

This neighbourhood is well aware of Gagan's affair with Suranjana;

wife of Monoshij from the Mitra family.

Suranjana and Gagan met each other on a social networking site.

They were involved after that for about two years.

The TV has become impossible these days.

All they have is rape, murder, blasts and...

riots.

Who'll watch religious or comedy shows in the morning?

Crime sells

Bloody...

perverted mentality.

Psychologists say Mr. Monoshij has a borderline personality disorder.

Possible But no one ever complained of any disputes in the family due to that.

There is an aggressor in every animal.

So, murders and rapes intrigue people

Sorry. I don't buy that.

No one will read the paper if they don't serve scandals.

Exactly. What's illicit is delicious!

Dr. Jekyll is bland but Mr. Hyde, is spicy!

Which is also why novels by Edgar Allan Poe,

Herman Melville or Nirbed Lahiri are your favourites

Dark.

Gritty.

Cynical.

Opportunity, courage and power;

can turn Angel into Devil and Devil into Angel.

Although, who the history chooses to call an Angel or a Devil,

that's relative

Another Virgin Mary for me For you?

Nothing- - Thank you.

Okay, Sir.

Passing out in 11 months, campus interview is done,

what is scaring you?

Can't speak to the parents about living in?

Let me get a job, stand on my own feet.

You can't even stand on your feet with stilts!

Coward- - Great!

Yet, I'm the one urging you to make use of the five day off for a trip!

Relax! I'll speak to them.

We're a conservative family, you see

I agree, Rishabh is a nice boy.- - Not at all!

He's very naughty!

But spending three nights together before marriage...-

- Aunty, do people get adventurous only at night?

Aunty, just three days at my Phool Aunt's house

A five hour journey. To Murshidabad.

Obviously they'll visit the Hazarduari Palace in the daytime

Aware of Hazarduari's history?

Nawab Humayun Jah's- - Please!

I'm worrying about the nights, where does Nawab Humayun feature?

Phool Aunt?- - I made it up!

Baby!

Weekend is on!

Ma is convinced. We're going to Koelphuli!

Drive carefully.

I don't want any scratches

'Without those, the car can't lose its virginity.

Girlfriend and alcohol on the beach...

That too in my car.

Get yourself someone. Go for a trip.

I deal with scrap iron, brother.

The beach is not my thing.

I'd rather to go Gaya

Are you planning a honeymoon or a funeral?

Both.

It'll be cost effective.

Yes tell me.

Another peg?

Shut up!- - You're only four pegs down.

Rishabh, are you drinking?- - No!

Can't go even one day without it?

I haven't drank!

She smelt it over phone!

How was that, huh?

Three cheers

For a happy weekend

I think it's nice.- - Hmm.

Hello, young man! Avinash Sikdar here

Bodyguard.- - As in?

Taking care of the health is my job

Here's my card.

Wife?

No... yes!

Which one?- - The only one I have!

Oh no! I'm asking about your room Room number!

312.

Mine is 316. Opposite yours

Honeymoon?

Yes

Mosquito net is a must.

The mosquitoes here don't bite, they fly you away. Like a hijack!

Hi, Jack!

The wet hair carries the smell of a waterfall.

Even a mother's hair has that.

Your own wife, or someone else's.

All of them have it.

My daughter's hair had it too.

A jungle of waterfall!

Like the Victoria falls!

Yes Ma. We just reached Phool Aunt's house from Hazarduari.

Have you eaten?

Yes. Brilliant service

'Service'? Speak to your father. Spoilt brat.

Saw Hazarduari? How is it?- - Yes, very nice!

Read the chief architect's name?- - Chief architect?

Sir Thomas Roe?- - What!

MacLeod Duncan.

Bapi, I'll have to go now, please!

That was an oral examination!

What are you laughing at?- - So, miss Goody two shoes!

Come in!- - There's news! Oh no!

There's a good news

I caught some nice Pompfret fish, want to try?

Such a boring man! Sitting in the room all day!

Go walk on the beach bare feet in the mornings!

It'll feel like acupuncture!- - Baba, let's go.

You're worthless!

Let's make out on the beach!

And what if someone sees us?

Wow! So romantic!- - What?

How about spending a night in that bungalow?

Seems like a haunted house.

"Flesh; flesh... And flesh

don't you have a soul, Kusum?"

I say, where there is passion there's sore

The sun is setting.

Is that why you brought me here?

As in?

You could've brought your Kingshuk da here and drank together!

Hey, come on, don't spoil the evening!

'Spoil the evening'?

Are you turning into an alcoholic, Rishabh?

Is that what you think?

Haven't seen anyone drink like this in my family.

So?- - So? Even my father drinks!

But twice a month!- - On full-moon and no-moon.

Don't you make fun of my dad, Rishabh!

Shohag, your Babi is not the fucking world!

To me he is!

You drank beer and smoked up on the way! And now, wine!

You've spoilt my mood!

You lost your parents early! How would you know such etiquette, right?

Wham!

You're not drinking any more!

I bloody well will! Why do you care!

You are not drinking!- - You're so bloody nagging!

I'm nagging?

Crap!

Get rid of me! Find someone else then!

Why are you disturbing me? Just get lost!

Stop being such a stupid drunkard!

You're an ass!

You're an ass!

Hey, Shohag, listen!

Fucking housewife! Middle-class...

Feel like weeping?

Sad?

Happens

Who are you?

Each drop of your tear, is writing a letter.

Like every dewdrop does in the moonlight.

'What rubbish! 'Who are you! 'What's all this!

Do your parents know you're here?

Why do you care? I live or I die. Who cares?

The same aggression!

A murder gives birth to two murderers.

The murderer himself. And the other one who,

lives on to avenge.

Anger is eating up the planet.

Come in.

I will be dead in a few days.

Don't want my name in papers for murdering, raping or eloping you

Although, any man would intend to devour you.

Sexy legs.

You live here alone?

Everybody lives alone.

They just pretend to be together.

My name is Shohag.

Sit.

Your friend will be here soon

Let's go to the room

What? Let's go!

'What the hell are you doing in this bloody bungalow, Shohag?

Shohag, we need to talk!

Love is very tender.

Don't scold the one you caress.

And who the hell are you?

Angry Young man.

Humans need to calm down

Whisky?
