Desc: Aathavnichi Savali: Directed by Subodh Anand. With Gayatri Dhole, Subodh Anand, Ketan Bansod, Laxmi Borkar. In a common man's life, 'memories' are always treasured in the heart. Those memories often either give us happiness or even leave us depressed. The story 'Shadow of Memories' talks on the lines of such part of life. 'Bablu', a poor kid, lives ordinarily in a situation of poverty. Bablu's life follows a straight path. Waking up in the morning - going for work - returning home is his daily routine. He is a boy who lives his life in a trance. He doesn't like to mix among people. One day, during heavy rains, he suddenly happens to see a flower fallen on road and Bablu, being delicate by mind, worries about the fallen flower. He takes the flower home and nurtures it as an infant. Now, the flower and Bablu become close friends. Bablu, being an introvert, doesn't have anyone close in life. He didn't even get to live a fair share of life with his mother or friends. Because of this, he starts sharing all his thoughts with the flower. And during his talk, he mentions a girl, his childhood friend. His childhood friend's name is 'Radhika'. After telling tons of stories about Radhika, he realizes that the flower thinks all those stories are a lie. Then he uncovers all the treasured old memories out of a box, shows them to the flower and gets lost fully in the shadow of those memories. He remembers his childhood to the very detail, and while telling stories, even the night concludes unknown to Bablu. After some days, he takes the flower on a village tour. He introduces the flower to each mountain and hill that follows his path and at last brings it to the place where Radhika and Bablu shared their childhood days. He wholeheartedly chats with the flower sitting with it below a tree. All of a sudden, he confesses to the flower about keeping a secret, and starts revealing the complete truth to the flower. In it, he clears that Radhika, his childhood friend, died due to sexual abuse in childhood... and he even tells why he loves flowers so much. 'Radhika used to like flowers; and in disguise of a flower, I got you as my Radhika'. Bablu feels relieved after unveiling all the emotions, all the stories buried inside the depths of his heart and establishes friendship between the flower and that tree. The flower ages as days pass and friendship between both of them grows with happiness. One day, in his hurry to reach work in time, Bablu forgets to turn off an oil lamp in his house. The flame of that small lamp sets the whole house on fire and this fire even takes the flower along with it. Happiness of beginning a new life on one hand, and the flame caught by that happiness on the other, at last lives with Bablu as the shadow of memories.
