Memories of my childhood in the nineties

At around 3 pm on Friday, I suddenly remembered that childhood. When I was younger, I used to watch the casting of the movie on Friday night, the day before Friday, when the movie would be aired tomorrow. Seeing that, I was waiting for the market at 3 o'clock on Friday. I used to sit in front of that TV screen for a few hours because the movie didn't start. When the presenter or presenter appeared on the screen of BTV, we boys used to get up with joy. But at times, due to mechanical problems, the movie will be aired later, said a BTV presenter, male or female. Waiting for some time is counted, but the last mess suddenly appeared on the screen of BTV. Now the full-length Bengali movie is being aired, saying "Don't take flowers, don't take tears". BTV's ad started again. I didn't get up until the movie was over. Gone that Friday afternoon, when that day will come again. Sometimes some people from the village would come to VCR again. There is no chance to watch it for free. I used to pay 4-5 rupees for the source of my mother's or homemade eggs or rice, and I used to eat chanachur with some of it, but one hobby remained unfulfilled which was the last part of the movie and I could not watch it because sleep allowed me to watch it. No. As a result, the next day I would listen to the last stories of the movie from the big brothers of the neighborhood, after listening to it, I would express a lot of sorrow, but I fell asleep on that floor.

Those days do not come today due to lack of time or change of era. Today
It goes without saying that there is no era of watching movies on VCR, VCD, DVD. Today, no one who is interested in watching Bangla movies for free at 2 o'clock is sitting on the screen of BTV. CDs and cassettes have become a thing of the past for 2-3 rupees .. Sometimes I throw them somewhere on the table pretending not to see even if I actually see them in my hand for 1-2 rupees .. but in my childhood in the nineties I could find many fried or wrapped chanachur for 1 rupees. Which I used to eat with 2,3 friends. But today it does not happen anymore.
Even today, those movies are on the BTV screen, but my presence is no more. Because today I woke up and saw that youtube movie can be downloaded .. I realized that day I have grown up .. I fell asleep a lot !!
I used to watch "Baby's Day Out" movie on VCD, I used to watch 420 dramas .. I don't enjoy watching movies on CD anymore .. It is not possible to explain how happy news was when I watched the movie .. I rented a full series CD of 420 dramas and it seemed that politics is half over Understood, in fact, did not understand anything then, if the CD of the two episodes together, the shopkeeper would have kept 5 rupees less.

Sometimes I break the earthen bank and steal coins and eat juice, chewing gum and chips. I used to go to my aunt's house in the afternoon to play cricket without sleeping or playing in a small place in the neighborhood field.

Sometimes in the yard of the house, sometimes on the veranda, I used to run with the bat ball on the school field. Now there is a place to go but there is no one to play, everyone has grown up, everyone's thoughts are now, no one comes to school, college reunion.

many times we went to the mosque holding my father's hand on Friday, my father's hand was rough. I used to say to my father, "Your hands are rough, how do I know?"
“It Happens at Age”
My hand will be rough one day. My son will tell me one Friday, Dad, why are your hands rough !!
What should I answer? What shall we answer?
Growing up?

Sometimes I wonder why I grew up! Why didn't I sniff and breathe that day, then maybe I could play for a while more .. Why Friday comes again and again but those Fridays don't come? Why can't I cry in front of everyone now! Why do we hide the pillow wet!
Have people become mechanical?
Or has the city become mechanical? We used to say one and a half and one and a half, we used to say two and a half and two and a half. Now we don't have time to look at the clock!
