Swami

“Saudamini” is a bright village girl with academic ambitions and an appetite for literature and philosophy. Her intellectual uncle indulges her brainy bent, encouraging her studies and patching up the petty ongoing conflicts with her mother, a pious widow whose only concern is to see Mini married, and quickly. Mini is in love with Narendra (Vikram), the Zamindar’s son, a student in Calcutta who on his visits brings her Victorian literature, listens raptly to her discourse, and is bold enough to kiss her opportunistically when caught together in a rainstorm. However circumstances conspire against Mini and Narendra, and Mini finds herself married against her wishes to Ghanshyam a wheat trader from a neighboring village. While her husband treats her with a patience which she finds perplexing, Mini struggles to become accustomed to life in her new home. And then Narendra returns. How does she resolve her dilemma? The music is by , who received a nomination for composing memorable numbers like ‘s “Yaadon Mein Woh”, ‘s “Kaa Karoon Sajni” and ‘s “Pal Bhar Mein Yeh Kya Ho Gaya”.
