Thank you very much Gurcharan ji for validating the ID. If one of the flowers (the 2nd photo showing blue flower) seems to be *B. pauciflora* - the 3rd and 4th also would be same - belonging to same plant The blue colour fades to white as flower loses its glory.
Only the first one is from different plant, though the flower size I remember was same as that of blue; perhaps a different cultivar of same species. Let me put a cropped version of last photo to show some hint of calyx; but I do not remember its size.
