Having seen this a couple of times, as it played on tv, still, watching it from beginning gives a much better idea - it isn't about beating up a rich, educated girl, rather it's about the quiet, shy boy who has everything and is doing a serious Ph.D. too, but was always dependent on his uncle to tell him what to do next, and is petrified of being out in the world.
The endearingly simpleton attempts to transform himself to suit his merciful intended, but despite her own beginning to like him, she gives more weight to a momentary turn of temper to refuse him, not realising thus coukd destroy their lives for good. The other suitor, urbane and more, is meanwhile playing a spiteful game to destroy her father.
Beautiful but short visuals of Ganga at Rishikesh to depict the mother and son in search of peace, some picturesque ruins of yore of Lucknow to match the inner devastation of the unnecessarily separated couple, the ego of the temperamental heroine in playing games with the two men whike she risks her whole future and heart as well, the story gies through quite a few turns in its usual Bengal literature and films portrayal of a contrast between the modern with quicksand foundation versus old class with not merely money but a difference of character that's built over generations.
In an unexpected turn the role of other woman, a cousin, is clearer further - it isn't just about explaining their own feelings to the couple, or being kind to each, but also playing the game against the villain, who - for reasons not at all clear - agrees to run away with her instead of going to his own formal engagemengagement event. But as it turns out, he isn't all that villainous, and removes himself without her sacrifice, making it possible for the couple to unite - finally!
