Plot

A man Basanta Chatujje (describing himself as Angti Chattujje's brother) who couldn't stand bounds and chains bitten by wanderlust. In spite of the fact that he hailed from a rich Zamindari family and could have lived in comfort, his wanderlust took him to newer and different places where he encountered new people and mingled with their lives. He marries a woman Harimati and returns home to his family with his wife. But after a few days unaware of the fact that his wife is pregnant, he leaves her to go on another journey. Subsequent incidents bring him back to his house, only to find he has a son and his wife is no more. Heartbroken, he finds solace on a boat in the river while his Zamindar brother launches a search mission for him. [6]
