Lal Kothi

Check and mate.

Raigarh is a place shrouded with mysterious darkness.

Whoever comes loses his way and never finds his way back.

He never finds his way in the darkness.

That mysterious place is Laal Kuthi.

Laal Kuthi. Laal Kuthi. Laal Kuthi.

"Who goes by?"

"Who goes.. who goes.."

"Who goes by?"

"Who is it?"

"The soul flute doesn't play any music."

"Who goes by?"

"Who is it?"

"The soul flute doesn't play any music."

"Who goes by?"

"Who goes.."

"Why does the music of the flute attract me from distance?"

"I can't stay at home."

"I don't know this music that plays in my heart."

"Dear, my beloved who is away doesn't come."

"Dear, my beloved who is away doesn't come."

"Who goes by?"

"Who is it?"

"The soul flute doesn't play any music."

"Who goes by?"

"Who goes.. "

"The flute doesn't know that this place is deserted."

"The days are engulfed with darkness."

"The nights are never ending."

"The nights are never ending."

"Who goes by?"

"Who is it?"

"The soul flute doesn't play any music."

"Who goes by?"

"Who goes.. who goes "

Runu. Runu.

Runu. Runu.

What has happened? Tell me. Tell me.

Don't rush in the dark or you'll fall down.

What's wrong with Runu?

This happens daily.

Don't be scared.

Come with me, I'll show your room.

Come, Ajay.

Switch off the light. Switch it off.

Darkness overpowers light in this place.

Ajay, no one knows about the sad past of this mansion Laal Kuthi.

Runu is my niece.

You shouldn't break down.

You are not the only one who has been bereaved.

I've no one except father in this world.

I'm with you.

Just think of me. Who do I have?

Everybody knows that he was my elder brother.

But, for me he was my father, mother, everything.

Runu's marriage with Dipak was finalized when..

..one day Dipak was murdered inside Laal Kuthi.

Runu.. Runu has seen the murderer.

She had even recognized him.

But, the murderer switched off the main switch and..

..left this place leaving Laal Kuthi engulfed in darkness.

Since then no one switches on lights in this house.

Runu doesn't allow anyone to switch on the lights.

Runu searches someone with the light of the candle..

..in the darkness of the light.

No one knows it.

Not even Runu.

No one knows who searches whom.

Yet she looks for someone every night, sharp at nine o' clock.

Sir, what are you looking for?

Don't waste time.

Go to your room upstairs.

How are you, Runu?

Rang Bahadur told me that you've come.

Will you have tea, uncle?

You didn't answer my question.

I want to know how you are.

You want to know?

You know everything, uncle. Everything.

I've brought Ajay here as I know everything. - Ok.

He'll take care of everything here from now on. - Ok.

Take him to the office and show him everything. - Of course.

Here he is.

I've burdened you with a great responsibility.

I trust you to prove worthy of it.

Have faith in me, Mr. Sen.

I'll go back to Kolkata today.

Write letters to me informing about everything here.

How is Ramu?

He is good. He is good.

Don't worry. He is my responsibility. - Ok.

Please come.

Runu, he is the new manager of our tea estate, Mr. Ajay Choudhury.

Sir has sent him.

I know about him.

Take Mr. Chouhdury to his bungalow.

Well, I was taking him to his bungalow..

..but, I thought of introducing him to you before I went there.

Its better that the employer and the employee meet in office.

In my appointment letter I've not only been assigned..

..to take care of the tea estate but also been asked to..

..take care of Laal Kuthi.

"Who goes by?"

"Who goes.. who goes.."

"Who goes by?"

"Who is it?"

"The soul flute doesn't play any music."

"Who goes by?"

People lose their way in the dark and you've also lost your way.

Your bungalow is on the other side.

Go. Go away

"The soul flute doesn't play any music."

Sir, tea for you.

Greetings, sir.

Good morning, sir. - Good morning.

You haven't gone to office yet?

No.. sir, I mean Mr. Sen has directed me..

..to take care of you so that you don't feel uncomfortable.

I hope you are fine here.

Do inform me if you need anything.

Mr. Sen has appointed me as the manager and sent me here..

..to take care of everything here.

There are mistakes in the label list, production report and balance sheets.

Take this. Rectify the mistakes and bring it back to me.

Did you get the keys? - No, sir.

Strange! I've all the keys except the one to the big wardrobe.

I think its with Mr. Abhay.

Bahadur, tell Mr. Abhay to meet me in the tea garden.

Why does he need the key to the big wardrobe after all these years?

Go and summon Mr. Abhay.

Sir, here you'll find many people who can work.

But, there isn't anyone who can make them work.

Sir, did you call me? - Yes.

Give me the keys of the big wardrobe in the office room.

Keys? Why do you need the keys?

To open the wardrobe.

You can't open it.

It isn't opened.

The wardrobe wasn't opened after master's death.

Give me the keys.

You may get the keys from Runu.

Please go through this file, its urgent.

Mr. Abhay.

Have you come here to warn me the second time?

It's for your well-being. For everybody's well-being.

Hey! Hey! Is madam at home?

You can't meet her.

Why?

She doesn't meet outsiders.

I've come here with some official work.

Go ahead.

Madam..

Your coffee.

You've not been appointed to serve me coffee.

Go back to the work you've been appointed for.

I've come here for the same purpose.

Give me the keys of the big wardrobe in the office.

It has remained locked for a long time and will remain so.

That's why I want to open it.

Maybe some secret facts unknown to you are locked inside.

You need not know what I don't know.

Did you meet her?

I'm here.

"I couldn't forget him."

"I couldn't forget him."

"With the help of sleep and love.."

"With the help of sleep and love.."

"..and even with death.. I couldn't forget him."

"I couldn't forget him."

"Don't wish for joys when you are in love."

"Don't forget to forget everything."

"Don't wish for joys when you are in love."

"Don't forget to forget everything."

"There is no way to go back."

"Yet I can't give up my life."

"I couldn't forget him."

"The name that brings tears to my eyes."

"My heart breaks when I think of him."

"The name that brings tears to my eyes."

"My heart breaks when I think of him."

"I can wipe my tears but can't erase his name from my heart."

"I couldn't forget him."

"With the help of sleep and love.."

"With the help of sleep and love.."

"..and even with death.."

"I couldn't forget him."

"I couldn't forget him."

Whenever I return to my bungalow after work..

..I find you engulfed with some sorrows.

I want to know the reason.

That is none of your business.

I think it's a person's duty to show the right path..

..to the person who has lost his way.

You were not appointed for this purpose.

You are not paid salary for this purpose.

That's not the answer to my question.

I won't answer you.

Don't say that.

Say that you can't answer my question.

That's because you don't know the answer.
