Meeth Bhakar

1949· 125 min·

Amrit, the son of proud patriarch Tatyaba, who lives with three sons and a daughter-in-law, is accused of a murder in a gambling den. In return for hushing up the matter, the evil owner of the den enslaves the entire family, forcing them to do menial labour. The happiness of the past is contrasted with the family’s downfall, for which fate is blamed, until salvation arrives when the murder victim turns out to be still alive.
