Atin.
Atin!
You up?
Atin.
Hey!
Wake up. It's late.
Wake up!
Hey!
Get up!
Pushpa...
Let me sleep.
How much longer?
Don't you have to go to office?
Barely slept last night. Had a bad dream.
You drink bad things. So you get bad dreams.
There she goes again.
Here, have your tea.
Everything's strewn about. What a mess!
Pushpa!
What?
What kind of tea is this? Not an ounce of sugar!
Sir.
Hmm.
-Something on your mind, Pushpa? -Yes.
Atin has changed a lot.
He returns late every day.
Comes home drunk.
I've told him not to but he just won't listen.
He really looks up to you, sir.
Please talk to him. It's time he got married.
-Hello, Bhabesh uncle! -There he is.
-When did you come? -Just.
God bless.
Pushpa planning to get me married?
Please take over.
She's not wrong, Atin.
You live all alone. No contact with relatives.
At least date someone. You're not getting younger.
Oh, come on, uncle.
Anyway, come with me.
Let me show you the latest addition to my collection.
Another addition?
Come have a look.
It'll leave the great archaeologist, Bhabesh Bhattacharya, stunned too.
Come! You can have tea later.
Come with me first.
And... here it is.
Marvellous!
Exquisite, right?
Veena in one hand, a human skull in the other.
Ever seen such a combination?
Seems like...
a tantric goddess.
Are you sure?
Tantrism is practised among Hindus.
But this idol looks nothing like the known deities in Hinduism.
Who said only Hindus practise tantra?
Buddhism shows a heavy influence of tantrism too.
Yes, your dad didn't believe in it...
But sir-- your granddad-- did extensive research on this.
I've learnt from him too.
Do you know about Vajrayana Buddhism?
No.
Look closely.
This idol has Tibetan features.
The Buddhist sect in India
was influenced by Hindu tantrism long back.
Between the 10th and 14th centuries AD
we came under attack from foreign powers.
That's when several Buddhists up and left for Tibet.
That's why
Tibetan Vajrayana Buddhism has major elements of tantrism.
But if that's the case...
this idol would be at least 700 or 800 years old.
It's supposed to be priceless.
How much did you get it for?
Just got it a day ago.
But I haven't paid for it yet.
I'd told you my friend owns a curio shop, right?
-Yes, the guy you buy this stuff from. -Yes.
Subesh. Subesh Agarwal.
That's where I saw it.
You know what's interesting?
He got it for free too.
What are you doing?
Offered flowers...
When I put a garland around my parents' photos...
I don't know the rituals of worship.
But it's an idol of a goddess, after all.
And I felt this urge...
to worship the Goddess.
So you randomly offered flowers?
This is the problem with your generation.
You just don't care for rules and rituals.
There are different rules and rituals for the gods and goddesses.
If you don't abide by them, it could be--
Uncle, hang on, hang on.
Why are you getting all serious?
Because it's a serious matter.
You can't do this!
-There's a Kali temple nearby. -Hmm.
I'll speak to the priest.
He can come and tell you the norms of worship for--
Okay, Bhabesh uncle.
Get the priest.
I'll follow his instructions.
-Now finish your tea. -No, don't want it anymore.
-Why? -I've to catch a flight to Delhi.
-I should get going. -Okay.
-I'll sort this when I'm back. -Okay.
You don't ask after this old man. Only I keep in touch.
-Ridiculous! -Okay, okay.
I'll call you every evening and ask how you're doing.
Let it be. Too hard to digest!
-See you. Pushpa, I'm leaving. -I'll see you off.
That's okay. Bye.
Oh shoot!
Pushpa, breakfast! I'm super late.
Right away.
Hi, sir.
-Hello. -Congratulations.
-Thank you. -Welcome.
Congratulations, Atin.
Thank you, thank you.
You get what happened?
What?
The news about your promotion has been leaked.
But how?
That's not important.
-Did you observe something? -What?
-Subrata called you by name. -Hmm.
And Anima called you sir.
Hmm?
Yeah, I noticed.
What are you going to do?
About what?
Oh wow!
So you've done it already, huh?
What? Shut up!
Don't talk rubbish. Get back to work.
-Hey... -Zip it and get to work.
-Unbelievable. -Fine.
-You're absolutely useless. -Nonsense.
-You came to the world alone... -Shut up.
-And you'll leave it alone. -Fine. Work now.
Jerk!
Excuse me, this is the gents'--
Gents' toilet.
I am hungry!
Atin.
I'm hungry, Atin.
I am hungry!
Offer food to the Goddess.
Then I'll get to eat too.
Atin...
Atin?
-Hey, Atin. -Atin...
Atin!
What's wrong?
Why aren't you eating?
Atin?
Atin.
Mother Goddess.
O Goddess.
You have summoned me.
Now give me food.
Can't you see it?
I'm extremely hungry!
Who will satisfy my hunger?
Give me food.
Atin!
Wake up.
Atin?
Heading out, Pushpa.
Without breakfast?
Not in the mood.
Atin?
What's this?
You're home on a holiday?
Problem if I'm home on a holiday, problem if I'm not.
What's gotten into you?
Unwell?
Upset?
How long ago did Mom die?
About five years.
Missing your mom?
Is she happy, Pushpa?
The dead can't come back.
Don't be upset, dear.
So what if she's gone?
I'm here for you.
Don't be upset.
I'm here for you.
