**********************

Cracked by no less than FIVE people!!

The grand connect is obviously Rituparno Ghosh, the director!

1: O Henry wrote The Gift of the Magi (pronounce Maj-eye), which inspired the film Raincoat starring Ajay Devgan and Aishwariya Rai.

2: Rabindranath Tagore wrote Chokher Bali (literally: sand of the eye; figuratively: pet peeve or something which one cannot stand or endure because it irritates), which inspired a film by the same name.

3: Suchitra Bhattacharya wrote Dahan, which inspired a film by the same name.

4: Rituparno’s latest outing will be Sunglass, a comedy/satire starring R Madhavan and Konkona Sen Sharma.
