Young Sohum is carried away by the make-believe stories of Sayak, a new kid in his class. While the rest of the kids make fun of him and bully Sayak by calling him a liar for the over the top things he says. Sohum takes Sayak’s stories very seriously.

Original Language

ক্লাসে আসা নতুন ছাত্র সায়ক রঙ চড়িয়ে নানান গল্প বলে। সোহম সেইসব গল্প শুনে মুগ্ধ হয়ে যায়। যদিও অন্যান্য ছাত্ররা সোহম কে মিথ্যুক বলে ডাকে, কিন্তু সোহম সায়কের গল্প শুনে বিমোহিত। সে সত্যি বিশ্বাস করে সায়কের প্রত্যেকটি কথা। সে উপলব্ধি করে যে সোহমই তার এক মাত্র বন্ধু।
