Mrig Trishna or Mirage - this is the story of two women in Mr Bachchan’s life and the reflection of these experiences on his poetry. Circa 1925, Champa who was Karkal’s wife, and a dream-world that a young Harivansh and his best friend Karkal had weaved together with Champa, followed by two tragic deaths.

Fast forward to 1939, then comes Iris, one with blue eyes and light brown hair who inspired one of his most beautiful poems but not until 13 years in the land of Ireland. Iris proved to be a mirage, however. As he then said – “चल अभागे मन, कहीं अब और मैं तुझको रमाऊँ” ...

As part of these stories, we are also reading a couple of poems from Ramdhari Singh Dinkar - और त्रिया जो अबल, मात्र आंसू, केवल करुणा है

And a “Savaiya” from Raskhan on Shri Krishna...

नारद से सुक ब्‍यास रहैं पचि हारे तऊ पुनि पार न पावैं, ताहि अहीर की छोहरियाँ छछिया भरि छाछ पै नाच नचावैं...
