Thank you, Usha di.
No, this tree was quite far off. Pictures are taken at extreme zoom.

Wow! pictures !!!!!
I have seen  seeds being sold at Triambakeshwar . In fact this , and Suran were the only two items I could recognise among plethora of "jadi-buti" being sold .

Viplav has shown the ripe, brown seed in his thread in May 20019

==
seeds are called GILA ... in bagla language
they are sold in Kolkata in puja samagri stores
in reducing numbers
were used by ironing outfits that produced wrinkled sleeves of addy cloth for Bangalee Bhadrolok
it used to be my grandfather and uncles" favorite summer punjabi kurta , called Gila kora Kurta /panjabi.

on the internet i can not find even a single picture
not even Uttam Kumar wearing one, which i have seen him wear thousands of time, he was my mama's neighbour
and he wore it in may movies

if i had found one, it would be an interesting ethnobotany picture

Regards
Ushadi
