For the first time in six months, the corner of Chintu’s mouth twitched.
Then came the second night. Munna brought a cheap cassette player. He played an old Kishore Kumar song — “Zindagi Ek Safar Hai Suhana.” He started humming off-key. And then, he did the silliest thing: He stood up and danced like a clumsy bear.
