Art-house melodrama with a complicated plot. The notoriously principled scientist marries a young woman. His assistant falls in love with his superior’s wife. The assistant’s wife causes further problems when she reveals a past affair that the scientist once had with her sister. Financed by the FFC, the film was for a while exhibited as an instance of the ‘parallel’ or ‘new-wave’ cinema of the 70s(cf. New Indian Cinema).
