Plot Summary

[edit]

Nitai, the head of the Hindu community in the village, called a meeting on the news that the Pakistani military could come to the village at any time. Jalil, the only Muslim blacksmith in the village, came out of the house saying this to his sheltering father Bishu. The meeting is also being held at the house of Mr. Jamadar. He does not want Pakistan to be different. Bipin is a bit worried and he wants to leave the country quickly. But his son Sharat does not agree. He wants to fight for the country. Additionally, his wife is introverted. You can't go anywhere far with him. Sharmili is Nitai's daughter. Widowed a few days ago. He loves Jalil's daughter and is very fond of Jalil's family.

One day a wild boar entered the village. Everyone is shouting about him. At night, when the possibility of delivery of autumn wife Pallavi arose, she brought the midwife Kamala Masi. At that time the Pak military also attacked the village. Sharat escapes with his father and pregnant wife. But when he went to fetch the midwife's bag, he was caught. Her father rushed to her rescue and the Pakistani army killed both of them. Many more like them died in their hands. Although Jalil survived with his sons, the military captured his daughter, Sharmili, and a few other girls. Jalil tries hard to save the girl.
