Once there, however, an encounter with an old man leads him to an intriguing discovery of fakes and forgers, down Kolkata's bylanes, with more excitement than he could have hoped for! This story with art, adventure and a twist in the tail, looks at the evolution of Jamini Roy's unique style and raises issues about integrity in art the importance of creating, not copying.
