Storyline

Charu lives a lonely and idle life in 1870s India. Although her husband Bhupati devotes more time to his newspaper than to their marriage, he sees her loneliness and asks his brother-in-law,Umapada to keep her company. At the same time Bhupati's own cousin, Amal, a would-be writer comes home finishing his college education. However, after several months, Charu and Amal's feelings for each other move beyond literary friendship.—Erik Gregersen



Short Review

There is a characteristic Ray scene - perhaps the characteristic Ray scene... two people, arriving at some moment of discovery about themselves, caught in an instant of absorbed silence.
