Friend indeed…

[‘Bandhu’ is a script adopted from Satyajit Ray’s short story ‘Bankubabur Bandhu’ and the production got immense appreciation from audience.]

Bankubabu is very much known to us. You can easily come across the people like him around us – coward, weak and less confident fellow and some people are making fun out of him.

People like Bankubehari become self-centric, unsocial and psychic patient by humiliated publicly, repeatedly. This public embarrassment is of various types – physical abuse, mental torture or may be by the name of religion/caste.

Do we ever think what happen if these people come out from their all stiffness and dumbness and revolt against those bunch of jokers.

In this science fiction a symbolic extraterrestrial character ‘Ang’ appears to rejuvenate Banku like a true friend but the real life Bankus and Haripadas are likely to be upraised any day against all embarrassment, so don’t make joke to someone’s weakness rather stand besides him, be a friend…. A good friend.
