In 'Rang Samvad', there is a fountain of light of lamps that the handicrafts want to absorb in their eyes. There are faces in which Dev Charit speaks and goes out in search of Asim. There are vocal chords that a chorus singer is singing in her own voice. There is a rhythm on these pages. Lata is very lively. There is a golden sunshine of sensations. Saptaparni has a colorful shade. There are some memories. There are some dreams. There are a few things. There are interesting stories of the first world. There are some meetings. There are trees of desires. It's fun. It's a celebration of joy. It's festive season. On the inner pages are pictures of Sukhnandi, Anupam Pal and on the last page there are pictures of Ramiben Nagesh. Amidst all this, there is a collage of cultural activities across the country.
