Samar Nag

A young man still to find a place in the sun puts up an innocent bluff to a young girl he chances upon. They meet frequently since then. Bluffs continue to pile up. There is no way out. In a desperate bid the young man tries to break the wealth barrier. His friend, well placed in life, cautions him. He turns a deaf ear. The inevitable happens. The young man grows wiser but pays heavily for it.

A young boy wishes to switch roles with his father, and the wish is granted for a trial period. Mrinal Sen made this film for the Children's Film Society of India, based on a short story by Rabindranath Tagore. This happens to be the only work by Tagore that he made into a film.
