A tenant attacks the villainous landlord Jawaharlal Choudhury (Nemo/ Bhattacharya), injures his son Priyalal (KUmar/Choudhary) and abducts his daughter-in-law Sandhya (Molina Devi). Sandhya escapes unharmed to her relative, the engineer Prakash (B. Kapoor/Bannerjee), but her father-in-law refuses to take her back, believing her to be damaged good. Sheltered by the kindly Promode (P. Kapoor/Ganguly), her husband eventually accepts her back although she feels torn between affection for her saviour and her matital obligations. Based on a story by Bengali novelist Upendranath Ganguly (1881-1960), who was a follower of the best-known novelist of the reformist Bengali social, Saratchandra Chatterjee, Majumdars script is the high point of the film, working with a literary authenticity often attempted but not always achieved by New Theatres.
