“An elderly man, perceived differently by the world around him, lives in a home surrounded by photos and memorabilia from his past, particularly from his time as a sergeant in the Indian Army during the Kargil War. These artifacts from his past have a profound emotional significance for him, as he has no one else for company. After a typical boyhood and adolescence, he enlisted in the army. Upon returning from the battlefield, however, his life was anything but typical. The horrors and discipline of war had changed him profoundly. No longer able to relate to the nuances and emotions of civilian life, he became increasingly detached and isolated, leading to strained personal relationships. For him, peace in the outside world did not equate to peace within. The modern societal norms further alienated him, exacerbating his trauma.
As a coping mechanism, he turned to light - a fascination from his childhood. While younger, he marvelled at the play of light on objects, whether through a magnifying glass, the ritualistic pouring of water by his father in worship to the sun, or the joy of firecrackers during festivals. However, the war twisted this fascination; lights became associated with the blinding flashes of explosions. Yet, in his post-war life, he rekindled his bond with light as a therapeutic way to address his trauma. By embracing light, he began the process of compartmentalizing and confronting his haunting.”

Bob is terribly vulnerable as his years of decline and decay have set in, the loss of his beloved partner adds the constant ache of loneliness too. His family who he nurtured with care and provided for have turned a blind eye towards him, generation gap and lack of values and sentiments have gotten crude with the passing time.
The silver lining in this all is a mechanical entity with cameras for eyes and wires for nerves thinking in binaries, programmed to design a healthier and safer environment for these old people in need. From house automation, choirs around and outside the house, attending health concerns to providing the old peer group companionship, bonding and a sense of security, these bots try and cover each nook and cranny of solitary life. But the question remains how empathic can these metal and wire bodies get?

“হাড়vest” (Harvest)
Medium- Dot pen on paper 🖊
Two frivolous vegetable and fruit vendors are stuck up in their mundane and necessitated routine of fulfilling their daily chores of earning a living through selling their daily stock of goods. The story takes a dark and dubious turn when we come to learn that the two vendors run an illegal side hustle of organ harvesting when they receive an anonymous receipt in their daily stack of vegetables. What unfolds next is a series of vile, repugnant and loathly frames of visuals with a gullible man who becomes a victim of this circuit.
