Under the Banyan Tree - For the love of stories

You know what made summer bearable in the summer afternoons of the 90's? Maach bhaat or the aam er jhol induced the much needed afternoon siesta. But, not before I could stretch out on the cool floor, a bolster under my head, a book in hand and my legs propped up on my grandmother's heaving tummy! "You know what happened...?" is how the stories started. And there would be stories of good and evil, stories of scientific wonder or even stories that made me dream. Here is an effort to bring back loving memories of stories in audio format for you to enjoy at leisure.

Two Magicians by Satyajit Ray

Surapati Mullick was a famous man. Why? Well, he was the famous magician of Calcutta. His magic shows were always houseful. 

On his way to Lucknow, his first show outside of Bengal, he encounters something that he was not expecting. Surapati was lost in thought of an important person who actually made him the magician he was today. And what does he notice? That person sitting right in front of him!

Was it for real? Was it magic? Or was his mind playing tricks? Whatever it was, he had an important lesson to learn - the one of gratitude. Listen to this beautiful story that I loved recording.
