Plot:

The story of the film is set in a village of Chhattisgarh (then Madhya Pradesh) which has prevalent caste discrimination. It starts with the landlord talking to the Purohit (Priest), and later with his wife Dulari regarding how he wants to take Charandas (who belongs to the [Satanami] community) to court for land acquisition. Fulwati (Charandas' wife) asks him to settle the matter instead of fighting over it. The Purohit on the other hand, tries to instigate differences between Satanami community among upper caste people through his preaching. But the kids in the village seems to question caste discrimination and discuss it in their school. After some years, Nayandas (son of Charandas) goes to Agriculture University for higher education & becomes good friends with Ravikant Tiwari. Nayandas comes back to the village after completing his education, helping the community in farming practices re-unites with Rupa and Geeta (younger sisters of the landlord), his childhood friends. Nayandas and Rupa's childhood affection turns to love but they realize they belong to different communities. As their love for each other grows, Kamal Narayan Pandey, who envied their relationship, started to spread rumours the sisters that they were getting too old for marriage. Rumours spread like wildfire which made Rupa too sad to even step out of the house. The landlord is struggling to find perfect grooms for both of his sisters and the Purohit is delaying it even further because he is taking bribes from Kamal so he can marry Rupa. While Nayandas tries to make a co-operative society of all farmers in the village, his friend Ravikant Tiwari gets posted in the same village as a Doctor. On the other hand, Kamal tries to force Rupa to marry him and as she declines, Kamal again spreads rumours about the affair between Rupa and Nayandas, which is shameful for the society of the village. Nayandas marries Rupa at a temple in presence of Geeta and Dr Ravikant. They talk to their families and convince them on their ideas of relationship/marriage.
