Nityananda’s (Shyam Laha) music school has a speciality.The students are taught new
|
songs and for this purpose a poet (Naresh Bose) is at service. However, the school
|
does not run well and is on the verge of closure. Sati (KANAN), a student of the school
|
brings a gramophone record one day and plays it to Nityananda, who decides
|
immediately to appoint the poet and composer of the song as his school teacher to have
|
new songs for his students…………..
|
After a thorough search, poet Ananta Roy (Saigal) is found from a remote Bengal village
and he is persuaded to be part of Nityanand’s school. By a coincidence Ananta’s city
|
abode makes him Sati’s neighbour. The two meet and Ananta gives out his heart to teach
|
such songs to Sati that she is recognized as an accomplished singer. Nityananda arranges
|
a stage show for the inauguration of his school with a new look. Ashutosh Banerjee (Ratin Banerjee)
|
is invited to preside over the function. Sati’s songs are widely acclaimed and she
|
becomes an instant hit while poet Ananta is neglected with no one being interested about
|
the poet or the composer. Meanwhile, Ashutosh approaches Sati’s father (Dinesh Das)
|
and asks for her hand in marriage, which takes place early. Ananta ,already in love with
|
Sati cannot accept reality and goes back to his native place after a failed attempt to stop the
|
wedding. Sati is in the midst of wealth, a loving husband and glory as a singer but she
|
realizes that the major credit for her success goes to Ananta ,who is languishing in oblivion.
|
She gets restless and tells her husband about the talent of Ananta who is persuaded to come
|
to the city once again by Ashutosh and with Ashutosh’s help gets fame, recognition and a
|
position in society. He understands that behind Ashutosh’s interest lies the silent inspiration of
|
Sati and mistakes this as love for him. He openly lays his claim to her, mistaking Sati’s
|
gratitude as love. Misunderstood by husband and chased by Ananta, Sati’s life is in
|
doldrums but Ananta sees the writing on the wall and the couple is reunited……….
