First of all it is not a Hindi language movie, as it is written here. It is a Bengali movie based on Rabindranath Tagore's story with the same name. The story was written around 1915 and was way ahead of the time and naturally caused an uproar among the conservative minded people. And surprisingly it includes people like Bipin Chandra Pal. The story is about the conflict between narrow minded rich people against a woman with open and broad mind, literate and with great personality. Natually a complete misfit to this family as well as to the contemporary society. Acting is very good and sometimes look like a Ray movie. I don't know whether Purnyendu Patri made any other film than this or not, but it is of very high quality, though not popular. Worth watching it.

Bengali cinema is admired for its poetic realism, humanist focus, and deep literary ties. Often influenced by literature, it balances art-house traditions with socially conscious storytelling, exploring morality, class, and the rhythms of rural life.

The drama genre is a broad category that features stories portraying human experiences, emotions, conflicts, and relationships in a realistic and emotionally impactful way. Dramas delve into the complexities of human life, often exploring themes of love, loss, morality, societal issues, personal growth, with the aim to evoke an emotional response from the audience by presenting relatable and thought-provoking stories.
