The conversation began with an introduction from our side (needless to say, they did not require any sort of introduction). It was just another ordinary Saturday evening, except that, my best friend Ridwan and I, were sitting in conversation with Topu and Emran bhaiya from 'Yaatri'. Such is the charisma of 'Ekta Gopon Kotha' such is the magic of 'Yaatri'!Ġ3:00pm, 24th March 2007- the sun was out but the heat was abated by a cool breeze, most of the shops were open, and Road No 13, Banani, was bustling with life as students from all the universities occupying the street, were pouring in and out of their respective buildings.

Well, I wasn't really surprised by my cousin's reaction. Before long, my cousin came rushing into the kitchen and shook me out of the trance I was drowned in. As my concentration lay stranded between the catchy tune and the sparkling crockery, I had not realized that I had actually started singing the song out aloud.
