Melodrama celebrating the love between a woman and her brother-in-law. Mohan goes to the city and marries Chitra. They become parent figures for Mohan’s younger brother, the rustic Ramu. When Mohan dies, gossip about an affair between Chitra and Ramu forces her to leave but she returns to take care of Ramu. This Oriya hit, largely for Prafulla Kar’s music, is regarded as having revived the region’s film industry.
