The film recounts the love story of Oxford-educated barrister Amit Ray, whose virulent intellectualism reveals itself in its opposition to all forms of tradition. He meets Labanya at a car accident and a romance builds up in the misty hills of Shillong. Amit's iconoclastism meets Labanya's sincere simplicity. Labanya releases Amit's own submerged depth of sincerity, to which he adjusts with difficulty. The struggle makes him a curiously pathetic figure. The girl understands the tragedy, releases him from his troth, and disappears from his life.
