Kamala: Maybe we should more than a play.

Shubhra: Or four. And make it a full fledged play for Naatak.

Sumit: Yes something scintillating. I want to do a Karz remake.

Kamala: Ooooo, maybe we could one of those honee-anhonee stories.

Shubhra: Or Mungeri Lal ki haseen sapne.

Sumit: Hey guys - we could do Bhuto. It's a Ray short story.
