Basu Poribar Plot

The Basu family is reuniting at their ancestral mansion for a huge celebration as Pranabendu (played by Soumitra Chatterjee) and Manjari Basu (played by Aparna Sen) are having their fiftieth marriage anniversary. Many relatives gathered with their families, and everyone was really happy with the celebration.

However, this celebration didn’t last too long. The Basu family had a lot of dark secrets lurking in their mansion from way back. An old man lived all alone in an old ruined portion of the mansion. That day, the old man suddenly appeared in front of their dinner table.

Pranabendu started to scream at the man and asked what he was doing there. While disrespecting him, he asks him to leave immediately, which enrages pranabendu’s son Tublu. Tublu then tells the harsh truth about that old man’s past to everyone.

Long ago during the younger days of Pranabendu and Manjari, there was another young man named Sajal in Manjari’s life. They were really close to each other but this made Pranabendu loathe Sajal as he liked Manjari and didn’t want anyone else to come near him. Pranabendu, later on, became a major factor in Sajal’s demise so that he could have Manjari. This old man is Sajal’s helpless father who was left all alone to live in the dilapidated portion of the house. What will happen to the family after they know about the dark past of their respected father is what should be seen in the film.
