Satyajit Ray’s ‘Nayak’ (1966), from where I took the first quotation, does not go beyond the first-class compartment of the Calcutta (now Kolkata) to Delhi bound train journey. Mr Bose, a successful businessman, reluctantly settled for a bottle of coke as neither beer nor tea was available.

Her eventual betrayal and death was the catalyst that transformed Bond into the cynical, hard-edged agent we know and love.
