That's what he said.

Then why am I not relieved?

We almost have him under our spell!

But if someone decides to overtake us and go for the gold...

How are you so sure that the stone is in that house?

How are you so sure that the stone is in that house? - What?

Are you doubting the source of my information??

Are you doubting the source of my information?? - I might be! Look...

... until Monu himself mentions the existence of the stone...

... there will always remain a doubt! - Yes. That's true!

Alright, I get it!

To make sure the lad opens up about the stone's existence...

... I'll think up a plan.

Bechu? - Yes?

Where is Sebak? - I don't know, Ma'am.

And Dibakar?

He must be around here somewhere...

There you are!

Have you seen Dibakar?

He's in his room.

Ah! Did you all just return?

What are you up to?

I was just going through these receipts.

Is everything in order?

Is everything in order? - Yes, everything seems to be in order for now!

How did all this happen?

How did all this happen? - What happened?

Have you seen this?

Have you seen this? - No, I haven't.

Is there any problem?

Problem??

This is a catastrophe! A disaster!

Are you saying that the total expenditure for last week was seven thousand Rupees?

No, no! Seven thousand five hundred and seventy five! It's written down there!

Thief!

Is it too much?

Is it too much? - Cutthroat!

Bhuban was a cutthroat!

When he was here, the minimum for a week was fifteen to sixteen thousand!

For the last few years, he has literally bled me dry! That rogue!

So expenses have come down quite a lot!

So expenses have come down quite a lot! - What have I been saying for so long??

But how is the amount this low? - Show me.

Have you checked everything properly?

Yes! I double- and triple-checked everything! - Uff!

If I could get my hands on Bhuban now...

... I'd put him in jail!

Let me see your hand!

No, not to shake your hand!

I want to read your palm!

Hmm.

You're an Aries, without a doubt!

But what are these?

What are you talking about?

These!

These scrape-like marks?

What does that mean? - Imprisonment!

Have you ever done time in jail? No?

But still...

But still... - Master? I have served tea inside.

No! This is not a good sign!

These marks present on anyone's palms indicate that...

... the individual must, at some point...

Come, Dada. Have some tea.

I'll be in the office.

What happened? Won't you have some tea?

I had a cup in the morning.

I had a cup in the morning. - So? Tea is good for you!

Maintaining a good habit keeps you away from a bad one!

Here you are!

What about you? - I'm going to get mine.

Grandpa, it's high time for the wedding!

I mean, Nanda's...

You've started again?

You've started again? - What?

I don't see any prospect of marriage right now.

The minor phase of Rahu has started in the major phase of Venus.

Did you understand?

That means...

I don't think there is any prospect of marriage for at least another three years.

Three years...?

Let's talk about you.

Are you searching for a new job? - Yes!

But no luck finding one yet!

Don't give up on it! - Of course not!

Come here, let me see your hand!

Come here, let me see your hand! - My hand? Why?

Come in, Sir.

Come, Nabin! Come, come!

Did you bring it?

Yes, I have, Sir! We finished this in the morning today itself!

Here you are!

Here you are! - Good, good! Please! Sit down.

This is for you!

What is it?

What is it? - See for yourself!

Grandpa!!

I haven't given you anything for a long time, so I thought...

Dada, look at this!

Isn't it beautiful? - Yes! Very!

Help me wear it!

Nabin, the bill, if you please. - Yes, of course, Sir!

Here you are! - Give it here.

Grandpa!

Grandpa! - It's looking beautiful!

Here.

Show this to Dibakar and tell him to give the money to Nabin immediately!

One more thing.

Tell him to keep a record of this.

I need you pay the amount on this bill to Nabin.

Wow! That's lovely!

Do you like it?

Ma'am? - Yes?

Ma'am?

What happened? - The pain in Master's leg has increased.

He is calling you downstairs. - Alright, let's go.

Grandpa?

Were you already in bed? - No, I wasn't.

Has the pain increased?

Has the pain increased? - Yes, dear. It increased a short while ago.

Wait. I'll give you some medicine for it.

Is Dibakar still in the office?

Why? Do you want me to call him?

Why? Do you want me to call him? - No.

I have grown very fond of that boy.

He's such a good boy. And his money handling skills are...

... quite remarkable!

Are you saying all this because he's an Aries?

Why?

Don't you like him?

Sebak? You can go to bed now.

So?

Don't you like him?

Has the pain reduced at all?

Has the pain reduced at all? - A bit, yes.

Go on, go to bed now.

I'll go after the pain subsides completely.

Where do you want to go?

Wherever you want to go is fine with me.

At this hour, our only option is to go to a hotel.

Alright.

A hotel it is then!

Good!

I'll give you the present once we reach.

Present?

You'll see once we reach!

Wow! It's beautiful, Monu!

Is it for me?

Thank you!

It's so pretty!

Just a minute! Please!

Woah! What's up with him today?

Time to go play your part. Hurry!

Hey! Give me the box! - Oh!

Sorry! My mistake!

Is that you, Jhonti??

Sunny?!

Hello! How are you? It's been too long!

I'm great! Since when are you in Kolkata?

I reached here last night via Emirates! - Oh!

Let me introduce you! This is Monu, Manmatha Chowdhury.

Hi! I'm Sunny! - Santanu Sarkar, my school friend. He lives in Dubai.

May I? - Please, join us!

What a coincidence!

I'm staying at this hotel!

I'd finished dinner and was about to leave, when I saw you sitting here!

While on the other hand, I've been unable to reach you ever since I got here!

Have you changed your number?

No, I haven't. - Sure? Let me check once again.

See? It's ringing!

Strange!

What are you doing in Kolkata? You had almost stopped coming here!

Don't get me started! Pressure at work is tremendous!

But I had to make time for my father's death anniversary.

I'm so sorry, dear. I had completely forgotten!

It's ok! No problem! Don't worry about it.

Oh! Hold on! I want to show you something.

Look at this! I found it today while rummaging around some old stuff back home.

Wow!

Wow! This is so very pretty!

Where did you find this? - Inside a jewelry box belonging to my grandmother.

No one knows for how long this has been in our family!

It's exquisite!

It's exquisite! Look at it, Monu! Isn't it beautiful?

I showed it to a jeweler this afternoon.

After examining it, he remarked that it was priceless!

And after that, he desperately tried to buy it from me!

I refused him point blank!

It's a family heirloom after all!

An heirloom? That little trinket?

Your eyes will pop out of your sockets if you see what I have back home!

Is that so? What is it?

The Sunstone, which is this big in size. It's a ruby.

It's been in my family for seven generations.

What are you saying, Monu? - Heirloom, my foot!
