~In das haveli~
Anirudh after signing the agreement goes with the accountant to get the money while others looks on him.

~In treasury room~

Accountant: Here you have 10000 rupees. Remember the condition.

Anirudh: Yes, I always keep up my promise. I will return this very soon.

Accountant nodded, Anirudh comes out of the treasury.

While he walks towards hall, Bondita stopped him.

Bondita: Sakha babu...

Anirudh jerked and stopped, on seeing her he hides the money and gave a warm smile.

Bondita breathes in and out as she came running.

Anirudh: What is the need to rush like this?

Bondita: I heard that you are going to your native place.

Anirudh: Yeah, what you heard is right only. We are going to Tulsipur.

Bondita: But we didn't burst crackers yet. You promised me that you will stay here until diwali overs.

Bondita: What is in your hand? Why you are keeping your hand inside the pocket?

Bondita: Is there any common language in this world which can be understood by all kinds of people?

Lavanya: No, I don't think so. Ah, chinna ma, now come, it's time for you to have milk.

Lavanya: Your questions do not have answers, chinna ma. You are always asking the questions which has no answers.

Anirudh: If so then search for answers.
