Wait one second...

You weren't here and they were beating me...

Nobody beat you...

You just got hurt while playing...

Do I get some antiseptic?...cotton?...

Nothing... check if you could get some ice please...

Nothing has happened champ!

One gets hurt while playing!

I have gotten hurt so many times!

Don't worry don't cry.

Here... let me see...

Nothing... nothing...

There's no blood anymore...

Listen don't tell anything to Guruji and Ma...

You just got hurt a little...

And that can happen to anyone right?...

So Posto... remember

what we discussed... ok?

Ma... Ma... Ma...

Open the door...

What happened?...

What is wrong sweetheart?...

I was beaten up by all the kids there.

They hit me on my nose...

It was bleeding from here...

Why?... How did it happen?

Everybody was beating me...

Why are you lying Posto?...

What are you saying?...

Why would such a small kid lie?

Nothing happened Ma...

He got hurt while playing...

That's fine... you get hurt while playing...

Let me see... what happened...

Come here... come here...

Wait... I'll check your nose with a torch...

Does it hurt here?

Ah!...

Here?...

Oh!... it is all red inside...

Wait I'll give you a dose of Arnica...

You'll be alright...

You know what Ma?...

He isn't going out...

he isn't mixing with people...

Not making friends...

He is gradually becoming old...

He is behaving like a...

Like whom?...

Ma he has to mix with other people...

Haven't I played in my childhood?...

Haven't I got hurt?...

Didn't I get hurt here and there?...

He is so fragile,

I can't believe he is my son.

Aren't you ashamed of yourself?...

You couldn't take care of

your son for one evening...

Irresponsible!

When he got hurt where were you?...

You dare blame him!

I am ashamed that you are my son...

You'll take him to Kolkata...

You'll kill him if you take him to Kolkata...

Bloody irresponsible!

Why did you say such things?

You spoke so rudely...

he left the house...

Good that he has left...

Very good...

Hey... is something wrong with you?...

Are you ok?...

A little tired... that's it...

Guruji...

End to all troubles.

Ok... come on now...

See you,

Okay!

When I was younger...

My voice didn't have much strength.

That is why they didn't

make me the class monitor...

Now I am all grown up...

and I have power in my voice...

That is why they have made

me the class monitor now...

What did you do as a monitor then?...

As a monitor I told Joydeep and Arjun...

make sure that you do your home work...

Take care to finish your tiffin.

And when Ma'am is teaching in class

... don't talk...

I also told them...

Guruji!

What happened Guruji?

Get up... Guruji get up...

I'm feeling unwell...

Guruji get up!...

Help! Help!

Anybody here?

Guruji!

Guruji get up please... get up!

Guruji please...

A bridge lies spread across Ajoy river...

Roads on its banks...

A few fishermen sit with their nets...

Spread like spider webs...

A few nurses from the city

come here to enjoy the sun...

They like this river...

May be not just that...

May be it is a masculine name...

Wow! Wow Momo!...

It started in Kolkata...

The biggest food chain right now...

they are now spread

across India in 6 cities...

with 52 outlets...

They have got an investment of

10 Crores from India Angel Network...

Do you know how much they started off with?...

Thirty thousand only...

Can you believe it?

So?...

26 years old Sreemoyee Chakraborty in London...

Has started her own pop-up business...

Restaurant... Calcutta Street...

Why are you telling me all this?...

Are you going to do something?...

We shall do something...

Start-up business...

Food chain in UK...

Investment is mine...

Brain and labour... yours...

Of course conditions apply...

You have to give a minimum

five years of guarantee...

You can't leave in the middle...

We'll have an agreement...

Get Susmita and Posto to London...

Posto will grow up with Tubai and Tublu...

Susmita can join us...

or she can do her own thing...

Big decision... take your time...

It will take time

to set up the restaurant...

Interiors will be yours...

It'll be a hit!

Mark my words...

But there's one thing...

Start up business in a middle-class family...

means career suicide...

You take care of your daddy issues, brother...

Hello?... yeah...

What?...

I'll be there right away...

I have spoken to them in Kolkata...

So they'll first do a TMT... treadmill test...

If its positive then

they'll go for Bypass or angioplasty...

But now... you shouldn't

delay any further...

Immediately you have to go...

These are your father's medical

insurance paper...

And some money...don't say no.

Come sit with me...

Spend this money on your father...

test and doctor's fees...

Nowadays you tell us

nothing about yourself...

Today...

Something really good happened...

Bonny has offered me

a business partnership...

A restaurant venture in London...

He wants me to take my family along...

He will invest...

Do you have to discuss this now?...

Bonny wants to make

an advance payment right away...

Can you imagine Ma?...

Posto will grow up in U.K...

What?

Posto... Posto will study in London...

Have you lost it?...

Have you told this to your father?

I think that is why he had a heart attack...

Ma I haven't told anybody...

only you...nobody knows!

The two of you can go to London... Dubai...

Open restaurant, food joints, salons...

Posto won't go...

Ma you know that ultimately

Posto will live with us...

If we go to London...

you think we'll leave Posto here?

No....You want your father

to leave us forever?...

Ma...Don't you dare bring

this up again! Shut up!

But listen to me once...Quiet!

See your father has a very

complicated blockage...

For which we aren't going for

any angioplasty or bypass...

Instead we'll keep

him in a medical program..

At least for 6 months...

In case he has a chest pain again...

Or any further complications...

Good afternoon... in that case

we shall go for an angioplasty...

Actually he is above 72 right?...

At this age... we shall not

go for a bypass...

Do you realize...what will happen if the

operation happens now?...

No UK... no business...

Nothing...

Vodka...

I don't think he'll need

the bypass right now...

But still man... every time

things are settling in life...

Then only...

Don't think about all this now...

Why not?

These days...does anyone

receive an offer like this?

Tell me... will they?...

Ma and Baba need your support right now...

Exactly!... that is what I'm trying to ...

Once I go to UK I'll be able

to support them the most...

They have to realize that

they have grown old now...

Once Posto's burden is gone,

Ma and Baba will be the most relaxed...

And they don't understand...

Posto's case isn't that easy...

I can get that as a mother and you can't?...

It's very very delicate...

Posto has been living with them

for a very long time now...
