Her own life was a problem to Kalpana. It was full of mental and emotional conflicts and she sought an escape from them in the beauti- ful valley of Kashmir. During her sojourn there, Kalpana met Amr, a painter. Amar was a widower and father of Munni. In each other Amar and Kalpna found what they wanted but the sudden disappearance of Kalpana from Kashmir jolted Amar. While returing to Bombay by train, Amar met Asha, in his compartment. Asha was travelling to Bombay for an interview at the Bharatiya Kala Kendra of which Amar was the Principal. Asha ultimately got a job there and she used to visit Amar house, at intervals, where she met Amars mother and his servant, DeSouza, who had accompanied Amar to Kashmir. Asha and Kalpana had great resemblance and Amars servant mistook Asha for Kalpana and also misguided Amars mother who by then had come to treat Asha as her would-be-daughter-in-law and Asha also believed that she did not at all believe that there was a "Kalpana", though Amar tried to clear the misunderstanding on her and his mothers part. . One day Amr received an invitation for a Dance Performance at the local theatre, where he saw Kalpana performing a dance item and when he tried to meet her to recollect their past meetings, Kalpana did not respond, presumably because her brother was also present then.
