The childhood incident which led Prafulla to take a 'BhishmaPratigya' and his awful experiences in the radio station are two great examples of Bora's sense of humour. Once during his school days, Prafulla was singing while taking bath near the well. His mother heard him and cursed the Gods for giving her son a voice so bad in spite of all the prayers she had offered for a child. He was further humiliated when neighbouring daughters and daughters-in-law laughed discussing the topic of his voice quality. At that moment, he took an oath never to sing again in his life at any cost.
But, circumstances compelled him badly to break his own pratigya. In a very awful situation, he was compelled to sing in the radio station in the name of audition. The humiliation he faced during his childhood days again returned back as he was forced to sing in front of many people who were simply left shocked. The story writer says, "Prafulla was not to be found anywhere. A week later, Dipak received a letter informing him that his friend was still alive. Through this sentence, the readers are informed about Prafulla's mental pa K Thus, the story presents the tragic sensibility by the use of comic tone throughout the story.
