 He saw those magnificent pictures which were becoming talk of the town- an Indian who could paint just as well as the white man, with all the white man's rules already in place. With no formal art education. It was incredible.

 Dada buys still camera from scholarship. At Nasik, when the boatmen strike, wrestlers agree to play the ferry. Taking their shoes off and crossing the bridge over the sacred river.

 Eclecticism is a primary note of the design.
 The decorations designed to display skills rather than to achieve a unity of diverse elements, project the unique features of each craft. The devices and motifs, illusionistic or otherwise, and forms which may be organic or geometric, plain or ornate, are assembled with an intent to interject into each other and are curiously held together in what appears to be a heterogenous whole. Perhaps the matching compatibilities of skills and designs neutralise their angularities to form an eclectic togetherness. The mixture of multiple modes, methods and materials, for all its seeming arbitariness, serves the purpose for which the Darbar Hall was designed: to serve as a backdrop, a setting familiar enough for any gathering- a coronation or the daily court, a formal meeting, or a concert or dance soiree; as such it was not to obtrude upon the eyes of the audience with any awe inspiring opulence. In essence it was intended to provide each performance with a choice of trajectories from the multifarious spaces and emblems on its walls.

 When Govind hid his face in the black cloth and tried to find his Baba in the mirrors of his camera, he found an empty chair- Baba had left its imprisonment.
 It was the next morning. Govind was trying to forget what he had thought of the Katha the previous night. He had put the camera between his father and himself. He wanted to capture an image of his father that he could then love in a simple way.
-But Baba refused this imprisonment. As did Kamala. His hand lightly holding the leg of the camera stand, Govind realised that this was not the place to keep it, he would have to go elsewhere to work with his machine.
