Here's a couple of playlists about him-

Babel: Or the Necessity of Violence: An Arcane History of the Oxford Translators' Revolution. by R. F. Kuang.

I’m actually glad this story takes place (1830’s) a century before Partition (1947.)

Because oh man my heart wouldn’t be able to take Ramy trying to go home to India after it gains independence from the British.

Only to realise he cant go back because of his religion.

The Professor is truly a racist and sexist piece of shit who only values people of color by their potential/current academic ability. Robins mom was only ever a body to use to get what he wanted.

Another moment about Robin’s mom that stands out to me is when Professor Lovell refused to say his mom’s name. I have two theories on why he didn’t, the first is just because he's an asshole who doesn't believe her name is worth saying, and the second is that he just simply doesn’t remember it. I personally like to go with the second one because it really would show that he couldn’t care less about the woman he uses to gain the children he uses.

The Professor’s self serving way of thinking is so disgusting and it makes for someone that anyone can easily hate.

"We are but Lilliputians in your eyes. Utterly awkward aliens in your organized city"

(lyrics from "khelna bati ranna" by Anupam Roy)

Listen to the whole damn song and think about them to give yourself psychic damage. They can't just give me a Bangali queer character and expect me to not go apeshit about it.
