+Major hit by the most successful Bengali
+director of the 80s. The poor Jayanta (Paul)
+loves Rupa, the rich daughter of the local
+zamindar, but is also indebted to his music
+teacher. When Jayanta upstages Rupa in a
+music contest, the zamindar uses his financial
+hold over the music teacher to extract a
+promise that Jayanta will never sing again.
+Eventually, when Jayanta shows he wants to
+keep his promise come what may, the
+zamindar relents and allows his daughter to
+marry Jayanta. The film borrows from a bawdy
+latter-day version of the folk jatra with its often
+lewd speech (an idiom associated particularly
+with this director), cueing the editing to the
+dialogue. Lahiri departed from his usual
+electronic rock score and composed several
+hits in a ‘classical’ style.
