One day he notices a news, where a guy called Sumanta Sinha Roy has been brutally beaten by Hindus only as he tried to save a Muslim girl from being molested. Mansij knows the name. Along memory, a life burnt name.. Mansij rushes to meet him and check if he is that same guy..
  
  Yes.. Same Sumanta.. Sumanta Sinha Roy. Mansij meets him and witnesses how respected he is. Mansij decides to call Arani.. after 5 years.. Arani, Mansij’s love..
  
  Way back in 1995, Mansij was a notorious student then. Being the son of the local MLA he used to hold the power to control students union. Due to his activities and womanizer image he was not at all respected in his life. Professors were trying to rusticate him for all logical reasons but repeatedly failed due to political pressure. Even students didn’t love him, they were afraid of him. Only a handful of followers, who were only utilising his tremor to fulfil their own interest, were with him.
  In this days, one fine morning, the new professor told him that, “Mansij, means born from the mind.. That’s why you are so good”.. what!! Some one praising him!! Mansij came to know that she is Arani. But life has taught him to take everything in a negative way. He reverted back by trying to insult her. But with no difference again Arani found a way to praise him.
  
  Days and Night, Arani was in his mind. He wants her. He again wants to hear, Mansij you are so good,. Mansij was becoming mad.. and then..
  
  That day there was an election in a local college. Mansij got indulged into some altercation and came back to his own college. But opponent party cadres attacked him. And Mansij saw Arani to become like a big bird protecting his own lovedone. Mansij saw a ‘Lady’, may be for the first time not just a ‘Female’, to whom he can surrender. Arani took all the responsibility to reform him.
  And in 1997, when Mansij completed his cost accountancy and got the job in Gujrat, he proposed her to marry. Arani smiled and told him that Runa is still waiting for Sumanta. Mansij came to know the story of Runa Reza and Sumanta Sinha roy.
  Arani was Runa then.. till the day Babri Masjid got demolished. She was in love with a hindu guy, Sumanta. Against all odds they were getting ready for their marriage. And 6th December comes. In the post demolition riot Sumanta lost mostly all of his loved ones. In a temporary breakdown he lost his mental balance and brutally raped Runa for beinga Muslim.
  
  Mansij now can see the transformation of Runa into Arani.. and can realise why she was so keen to transform him. A tradition, a natural flow of giving.. always..
  
  Mansij calls Arani and informs that he has found Sumanta out. Now it’s time for Arani to be Runa again as Sumanta does not know Arani and waiting for his Runa only..
  
  Mansij is happy today, it was his most valuable offering to Arani, who he indebted the most.. Arani comes.. And their life take a turn again..
