Bithika, a young bank officer on probation has been managing operations in a public sector bank that faces long queues of pension holders at the beginning of every month. Huge rush during banking hours put enormous strain on limited resources at the bank counters which sometimes force officials to adopt short cuts on matters related to scrutiny and verification routines. Bithika – although a very capable and smart officer, inadvertently overlooked a crucial verification involving client signature before allowing access to a secured vault; and it so happened that an unauthorized person accessed the vault taking advantage of that moment of indiscretion from the officer.

Within hours the bonafide client called up the bank and informed that their vault key got stolen that very morning and they requested the branch manager to deny any attempt of unauthorized access to their vault in the interim. Alarm bell rang when bank officials realized that the specific customer vault has already been breached and that too under the nose of their supervising official who never realized that something was amiss. Police stepped in and a sinister plot started unfolding in the most dramatic fashion.

What was that plot and will it offer any escape route to the young probationary officer??

ব্যাঙ্কের একটি ছোট ভুল… আর তাতেই শুরু এক ভয়ংকর রহস্য!
নতুন চাকরিতে সদ্য যোগ দেওয়া ব্যাংক কর্মী বিথিকা ভয়ানক বিপদে পড়ে গেছে। এক মহিলা লকারের চাবি নিয়ে এসে দাবি করেন যে সেটি তাঁরই লকার। নিয়ম মেনে বিথিকা তাঁকে লকার নম্বর ৩৩ খুলতে দেয়।
খানিক পরেই ব্যাঙ্কে আসে চমকে দেওয়ার মতো খবর—
চাবিটি আসলে চুরি করা!
এখন প্রকৃত লকার মালিক মামলা করতে চলেছেন, আর বিথিকার চাকরি যায় যায়!
তবে আসল প্রশ্নটি অন্য—
লকার নম্বর ৩৩ খুললে ভিতরে কী বেরোবে?
চুরি গেছে কিছু… নাকি এমন কিছু হয়েছে, যা বদলে দেবে পুরো ঘটনাটা, চিনিয়ে দেবে মানুষ?

রহস্য, উত্তেজনা আর অপ্রত্যাশিত মোড়ে ভরা এই গল্পটি শেষে মুহূর্তের টুইস্ট আপনাকে সত্যিই হতবাক করে দিবে আর খানিকটা ইমোশনালও করে দিবে। আর মনে করিয়ে দিবে সমাজের কিছু কিছু মানুষের কুৎসিত চিত্র। আর এটাও স্বরণ করিয়ে দিবে এই সমাজে টাকা যার আছে আইনও তারই। গল্প শেষটা সত্যি অনেক টাচিং।

৪.৫/৫

এনার লেখা মানেই যৌন গন্ধি আর নোংরা ব্যাপার... নয়তো তন্ত্রমন্ত্র কুসংষ্কার ... এগুলি-ই অবশ্য বাজারে চলে বেশী... সাহিত্য রসিকদের সময় নষ্ট আর অর্থ নষ্ট হবে

very sad, disheartening and unpredictable ending. Didn't expect the last part happened in the locker though.
