Poignant political melodrama in context of the
decline of the Naxalite movement in Calcutta
and, following a massive State crackdown, its
withdrawal to Bihar. Samiran (A. Chakraborty)
is separated from his wife Pritha (Majumdar)
when he, along with several CPI(ML) activists,
is sentenced to life imprisonment. He enjoins
his wife to remarry in the interests of their
child’s security. When he is released following
a change in government, he finds that his
colleague has become a rich industrialist, but
Pritha, who did not remarry, has continued her
struggle as a Communist leader in Bihar. A
muted and, by Chakraborty’s former standards,
more self-consciously melodramatic work, the
film has a fine performance by Sreela
Majumdar.
