Anokha Milan (1972)
Tara Sen lives in a small town in India with her parents, a younger brother, sister and an elder brother who lives in Calcutta. She is friendly with Ghanshyam, affectionately called “Ghana”, and often spends time with him near the river bank. When her brother returns home, he brings along a friend named Bijesh, who takes a liking to Tara and molests her. He is asked to leave the very next day, but the news spreads like wildfire, resulting in her parents to decide to get her married immediately, in vain though, as no one wants to come forward to marry her. During the Devi Pooja ceremonies, people crowd around the Sen household and spread vicious rumors about Tara, Ghana does not take kindly to this, a fight ensues, and a man is killed.
