Bengali word “Bheetu” in English means fear. In the day to day life the term fear brings a mixed feeling in the human heart. Even the person claiming to be the bravest must have gone through the stigma of fear once or twice in life. This is so because living of humans depend of factors like life, peace, soul, self-satisfaction and complacency.
