Истории Bengal

Teesta Sikdar x Hriday Banerjee · · ─ ·✶· ─ · · A woman whose life is in shambles. A man struggling to prove his worth. And the nightly metro rides which become their salvation · · ─ ·✶· ─ · · To him, she was unforgettable. Standing on the podium, her voice schoed through the four walls of the lecture hall as she deftly explained the complicated theorems of foundational calculus. Blackboard smudged with the whites of chalk, her fingertips dusted in the same as she turns around, asking if doubts lingered in anyone's mind. Kohl laden eyes, sharp and distant, would sweep over the exhausted yet crowded bunch. They didn't halt on him. Never did. And somewhere in the back of his mind, it nagged suspiciously - rousing questions too ridiculous to be asked aloud. To her, he was just another face in the crowd. One amongst the many that she passed by everyday. Unimportant and forgotten as soon as work hours were over. Until she sees him again. Sitting four seats away from her at the station, seemingly waiting for the same metro as hers. Vexation pinches the bridge of his nose, atop which rests a pair of specs. Checking his watch every five seconds, his feet restlessly taps on the concrete beneath. Backpack carelessly strewn on the seat beside, he would fish out his phone - clicking and swiping with a fury that she couldn't help but chuckle at it. Instantly, he jolts up. Caught off-guard and out of his natural habitat and for the first time ever, their eye contact would last longer than a minute. His lip twitches, trying to coax a smile unto his lips but he stops as soon. For a brief time, only silence remains between them. Then, he asks, "Are you okay, Ma'am?" And she would chuckle again; because she isn't.

"Where do your loyalties truly lie, Chitrasakhi?" The girl had no answer to that. The year was 1902 in Bengal. Tensions between the colonisers and the colonised were high with the threat of partition looming around the corner. Amidst all, Chitrasakhi Devi, a zamindar's daughter, yearned for her country's freedom after an incident shook the very core of her being. Arthur Harrington, a commissioner's son, lived a life bound by duty and obligation. What happens when he falls for the forbidden? What happens when the two contrasting worlds unite in a marriage? How does Chitrasakhi earn the trust of her countrymen after such a scandalous marriage? How does she navigate a system built to destroy her? What happens when she forms traitorous feelings of affection for Arthur? Where does her loyalty lie?

Set in 1770s Bengal.

People called her names, a witch, an augury, but she was none. She was a goddess. A heart filled with benevolence, love and deep etched agony, but she had none to share those with. Her name meant "To Prevail" and she did exactly that. Ramnagar, the only village of the Bengal province under woman zamindari. And the zamindar? Her, Indali Basu. He despised all, even the wind that blew past him a little too briskly. Everybody knew him as the devil and one shall never cross their paths with him. Appointed as the Governor General of the Bengal province, he had planned to live a silent life, detached from everyone and everything. Alvin Alexander Ray loathed everything but she came along, drapped in white saree and a face devoid of smile. A love story set in the early 20th century, where a widow falls in love in a Governor General. She never thought she'll have someone in her life to lean on but he became her knight in shining armour that she never asked for. She was tortured, abused yet maintained the facade of being strong and he tore down all the walls she had built around her heart. But amidst this the society stood tall like a villian. Will they be able to overcome all these hurdles? Or will they break away?

A Different Story of Anidita In the heart of Calcutta, Bondita, a catastrophic widow, battles the shadows of her past. Deceived by fate and betrayed by her own family, she fights to carve out a life of independence amidst societal constraints. Her spirit is unyielding, yet loneliness clings to her like a second skin. Meanwhile, Anirudh returns to India, inspired by the legacies of Mahatma Gandhi and Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose. Dreaming of change, he is met with resistance from his family, who dismiss his ideals. Frustrated, he wanders the bustling streets of Calcutta, where fate intertwines his path with Bondita's. Their worlds collide-a clash of status, identity, and age. "You think you can change the world?" Bondita challenges him, her voice fierce yet vulnerable. Anirudh meets her gaze, determination igniting his spirit. "Together, we can." As they embark on a journey of empowerment, their connection deepens, revealing the strength found in shared dreams. With every obstacle they face, the suspense of their blossoming relationship pulls them closer, teaching them that love can flourish even in the most tumultuous of circumstances. In the end, it's a tale of hope, resilience, and the unexpected bonds that transform lives.

A complete AU . PLEASE DON'T BASH ME IF IT'S BAD. This is the first time I am attempting something. I have not copied it from anywhere. It's just a piece of my overactive imagination. Barrister Babu is something really special as it has forced me to write for the first time in almost 9 years. Started: 18-03-2022

(Credit to @MysteriousCurl for the cover idea!) - Updated every other Saturday - They appeared when we least expected. The Passing of Moons had cast a shadow over everything in sight, and dark clouds fanned out like wings on the horizon, a terrifying winged beast seeking to devour the sun as it grew dim. When the darkness hit, and the clouds were illuminated with a dying red light, we swore there was a moment when the clouds seemed almost alive; eyes glowing like fiery coals. We knew it was them by then. There was a wail, somewhere in the crowd, and panic settled in. There were cries, screams of terror, but the flames surrounded us before we had the chance to run. The fire had appeared out of nowhere and we could see nothing other than the light of the flame, our fear was drowned out by the crackling and spitting as the flames pursued us. One by one, we fell, swallowed away by the growing blaze. Only the air was frigid, and the fire was cold - ice cold. Freezing burns covered our ears and legs and flanks, and the drowning cries were accompanied by a sickening shatter of something that definitely wasn't ice. Before we knew, we were dying. A painless, horrifying death, and we couldn't shake the thought that we had it all wrong. We weren't going to be rescued. There was no miracle, no shining hope within our midst. This was the end. Who could save us now? ---Reviews--- This is really well written! And so mysterious, I really want to know what happens next!
