Nishikanto Ghosh, who live three house away from Patol's Babu house, he was seeking to address a news to Patol that his brother-in-law, who was in a film professional, was looking for an actor in which Patol fits in that character. He asked Patol to get in touch with him for this purpose. This news was shocking for Patol Babu.

Patol Babu was shocked with this news, as was unexpected that an offer to act in a film at an age of 52, like him, was beyond his wildest dreams. When Nishikanto Ghosh asked Patol Babu about his decision he said there is no reason that I can find to say no to this offer.

The Second World War was the reason that he lost he lost his nine-year-old clerical job at Hudson and Kimberley. He struggled a lot in his career.

Patol Babu felt disappointed and sad when he got to know that he was to speak only one-word dialogue in the whole movie and that was ‘oh!.’ But later he accepted it because the director told him that he was the only one who had to speak that one dialogue in one single day and even lead actor had no dialogues to speak in a day.

Mr. Prkrashi was Patol Babu’s mentor. He was a wonderful actor, a saintly person, and a perfect artist. Mr. Pakrashi used to say that 'Each word spoken in a play is like a fruit in a tree. Not everyone in the audience has access to it. But you, the actor, must know how to pluck it, get at its essence, and serve it up to the audience.’ Based on his words which influenced Patol Babu, they helped Patol to perform his role very well with full confidence and determination. He was filled with spirit in him and got a direction which helped him to play his small act.

When Patol Babu got his dialogue, which was ‘oh!’ he tried different ways to give his best. First of all, he tried to understand the different essence of ‘oh!’ as if it was spoken in different tones it will reflect different meanings. This shows that how meticulous man he was and a wonderful actor. With this, he also maintained his physical reaction while acting his dialogue. This shows that how perfect he was towards his work and his attitude was so positive.

Mr. Mullick was involved in a tight schedule and was an obsessed director. He had no patience and time to give a rehearsal time to such a small dialogue. With this, there was one more reason that the scene had to shot in sunlight and as clouds were on the head so he had to take a shot as soon as possible. So he turned down PatolBabu's request for a rehearsal.

Patol Babu was assigned a role of an absent-minded pedestrian, who collided with the hero Chanchal Kumar from his car when he was way to the office. First of all, he rehearsed things very well. He worked out on his reactions well, his face expressions, his essence of speaking and he timed his act very well.

'I hope the part calls for some dialogue'

This statement is said by Patol Babu. He asked Naresh Dutt, the producer of the film about his act and about his role clearly that what exactly he had to do. He wants to be very clear with his role in his mind because Naresh Dutt has not told him anything about his role.

When Patol Babu got his dialogue the thoughts that arose in his mind was 'Were these people pulling his legs? Was the whole thing a gigantic hoax? A meek, harmless man likes him, and they had to drag him into the middle of the city to make a laughing stock out of him. How could anyone be so cruel?’ These thoughts arose because that dialogue for him was unexpected it was just a simple ‘oh!’ He felt upset and disappointed at this dialogue. He thought that these people are making fun of him and bullying him. He called him on set to crack laughs on him.

Patol Babu was very much disappointed initially when he got know about his role and a small dialogue that was ‘oh!’ but something stroked in his mind and that was his mentor words ‘however small part, never consider it beneath your dignity to accept it.’ Patol Babu realized that he should rehearse and perform this act as he considered it a challenge. While practicing he was taking care of his action of gesture, the essence of speaking and he examined every possible way to give a perfection to his work. He was taking care that how he will react physically when his collision took place with a car. He was working hard to perform his act. This shows that PatolBabu is an amateur actor for whom walk-on part in a movie turns into an ultimate challenge.

Yes, I do agree with the statement that PatolBabu is a practical man who comes to terms with whatever life has to offer. In this story, it was showed that he was a man who came across many struggles and he accepted all those. He switched his job but had never given up. Secondly, when he got an offer for doing an act in a movie, he accepted it and. He performed his act very well, he puts all his effort and hard work and completed his act in one shot. These things show that he was a true artist who was dedicated towards his work.

PatolBabu walks away before he can be paid for his role because he was a bit concerned about his self-respect which was the most important for him. He was a perfect artist and does his job very sincerely. Patol was wondering that his effort will be appreciated by others or not. He was in need of money but still, he hasn’t taken it because he believes that taking money for such a small act would be against his art and will not justify his performance. The character that reflects with this act of Patol was he was a person who for whom self-respect was utmost.

This story, Patol Babu, Film Star was all about acting and films. Making a movie was really a big and challenging task. Each and every part of shot must be well prepared before the shoot and for this actors have to work hard for months. Body language and facial expression play a big role in acting and Patol Babu in this story did same he rehearsed a bit before a shot so for this a director must take care about make-up and getup to give a real essence in a movie. Lots of heavy and expensive equipment are required to fulfill the essence of the real scenario. Actors have to work in all weather conditions and it is a big challenge for them. The whole team had to manage things properly and timely. So making a movie is not at all an easy task.

(a) That an offer to act in a film could come to a 52-year-old nonentity like him was beyond his wildest dreams unassuming; modest

(b) Indeed, there was a time when people bought tickets especially to see him talented.

(c) 'I was with Hudson and Kimberley for nine years and wasn't late for a single day.' punctual.

(d) It didn't matter if the part was small, but, if he had to make the most of it, he had to learn his lines beforehand. How small he would feel if he muffed in the presence of so many people meticulous.

(e) PatolBabu cleared his throat and started enunciating the syllable in various ways. Along with that, he worked out how he would react physically when the collision took place--how his features would be twisted in pain, how he would fling out his arms, how his body would crouch to express pain and surprise--all these he performed in various ways in front of a large glass window. passionate actor.

(f) It is true that he needed money very badly, but what were twenty rupees when measured against the intense satisfaction of a small job done with perfection and dedication? humble

PatolBabu's wife: So what happened at the shooting today? Did you get to do your role?

PatolBabu: Oh, Yes, I had the time of my life. Do you have any idea that filmmaking is like another corner of the river if we compare it with stage play?

PatolBabu’s wife: O really! How is it different can you elaborate?

PatolBabu: Off course, See filmmaking is something which is totally different from environment wise as things are totally different if we talk about sets, costumes, timings etc all these are perfect and well organized while in normal stage drama things are not that well organized.

PatolBabu’s wife: Oh! Sounds great. Well, who was the director?

PatolBabu: He was Baren Mullick.

PatolBabu’s wife: okay! Now tell me about your part like what was your line? , how you acted?

PatolBabu: It was a short role but played a big part in the story and acted according to the situation.

PatolBabu’s wife: Great! Are you hungry?

PatolBabu: Yeah come let’s eat our supper.

Each group will then enact one of these emotions to the rest of the class using the word 'Oh'. The other groups will try to guess which emotion is being expressed.

Dear Nishikanto Ghosh,

How are you doing? Hope you are doing great. It was a great experience for me working while in that movie. I met with my past memories related to theatre. I wanted to thank you for recommending me for that role.

When you came with a proposal of doing an act for a movie I was really surprised that after many years of leaving this profession I will again get an acting proposal in this age. You know well how passionate I am for acting and this was only the reason I haven’t refused. I came across many new things about films productions like cameras, light, actors, and shoots. I was amazed while working.

I am very thankful to you for offering me such a beautiful role and I must thank your brother-in-law too who supported me well on the set.

Yours truly,

Patol Babu
