Pyaar choot raha hai mera Rooth rahe hai saare Aapno ko rokne yahan Aapne khare hai saare. Binoy stormed into the Roy Chowdhury Mansion, as the rain poured heavily outside. Trilochan was sitting in the hallway with the newspaper as he looked up at his brother’s urgency. “Aniruddha? Aniruddha!” Binoy’s voice echoed through the house. Koeli exchanged a look of fear with Ashapurna who sat up in her bed in the room. Bihari rushed to the study at Binoy’s voice to call on Aniruddha who had already stepped out and Somnath and Batuk walked towards the sitting area where Binoy stood, visibly angry, his hands on his waist. Bondita stood fixed to the threshold of the kitchen. She expected this. “What is wrong Binoy? Why are you shouting like that?” Trilochan frowned. “Ask your pampered eldest what he did. Ask Him!” Trilochan frowned at his words. For most of the day, Aniruddha was with him, busy working, except for when he came home to fetch some files. “What did he do?” Trilochan asked. Before B
