Back in real time date 17th January 1952 ...
The last year of Anirudh before he begins his journey as a krantikaari ( revoluntionist ) ...
THE DAY OF CONVOCATION ARRIVES :
Bondita still a year left for her convaction and Anirudh senior to her ..entres the hall with a group of friends and takes a back seat , laughing and giggling ....with the senior most batch sitting in the front waiting to take their degrees .... anirudh turning back curious but missed to catch a glimpse of that blissful laughter that for a moment completed him ...
The clock strikes 12 as the convocation ceremony begins and Head master enters :
Anirudh turning back to see the head master enter ...suddenly catches a glimpse of Bondita and heard that same laughter echoing .....for a moment he was lost not in the laughter but in the feeling of completeness ...as if his broken heart took a rebirth ..
Time stopped for a moment... But the eyes still didn't meet 🤍
* was it love at first sight ...no ..it was just a feeling of completeness *As the headmaster begins annoucing the name :
headmaster : " THE GOLD MEDALIST BARRISTER OF THIS YEAR GOES TO NONE OTHER THAN MR.ANIRUDH ROY CHOUDHARY "
Bondita : " Main shart lagati hun ..yeh baaki hindustani ladkon jo yahan aake aapni mitti ko bhool gaye hai ...beena joote utare aur bina allah ko shukriya bol hi seedha apna medal lene chala jayega "
( BONDITA SAYS THAT LIKE REST INDIAN BOYS STUDYING ABROAD WHO HAVE FORGOTTEN THEIR MOTHERLAND JUST LIKE ALL THOSE HE TOO WILL WALK AWAY WITHOUT OPENING HIS SHOES AND TAKING BLESSINGS OF GODDESS SARSWATI , ACCORDING TO HNDU MYTHOLOGY ( HERE IT REPRESENT STAGE SINCE IN INDIA EVEYTHING RELATED TO EDUCATION , ART AND CULTURE IS TAKEN AS A BLESSING OF THE GODDESS HERSELF )
* ALSO BONDITA NOT BEILEVING IN RELIGIOUS DIFFERENCE SO SHE TALKING IN CONTEXT OF HINDUISM *
At that Very moment Anirudh opened his shoes and bended down to take blessings and fold his hands
ANIRUDH : "Haye Maa Saraswati ! aapka bohot bohot shukriya mujhe yeh avsar dene ke liye "
( ANIRUDH THANKING GOD FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY OF GETTING EDUCATED IN SUCH LIFE THREATING SITUATIONS)Bondita caught this small act of gratitude by Anirudh which in turn made her feel complete...A smile of satisfaction adorned Bondita 's face at that very moment ..
Anirudh went upto to the stage and took the barrister degree and tears rolling down full of pure emotions ....and Anirudh and Bondita 's eyes met for the very first time ...the eyes brightened up lokking at each other ..
anirudh didn't stop their ..there eyes constantly staring each other ..Anirudh gave his thanking speech ..
what was this cosmic connection ? was it really love ? or just a feeling of seconds and moments ?
