TWO FRIENDS, TELANG AND PHALKE: [[http://www.phalkefactory.net/wiki/index.php?title=PHALKE_STORIES&action=edit]] Telang: Friend, I hear you dabble in photography. Where’s your camera? Phalke: The monkeys stole it from me. Telang: Have you traced them? Phalke: The investigation’s still on. Telang: Can I be of any assistance? But in whichever age the picture comes to life, I must be given the credit for it. What is photography? Phalke: [[The formation of an image on a flat surface by an optical device and a chemical method of sensitizing that surface to a light source so that the image can be captured permanently is photography.]] Telang: Like tombstones. Telang: Friend, these are my monkey friends. I’ve been talking to them about our friendship for many years. But I wanted to give you a surprise before you all met. This is my gift to you. Telang takes a photograph of Phalke with the monkeys.
