Nirjan Saikate (1963)

The writer is himself the protagonist. He is on his way to Puri by train where he gets acquainted with a group of four Bengali widows accompanied by their niece, also going to Puri. The writer was just getting out of his day-to-day Kolkata life; these ladies want to soothe their niece, who has just broken up with her lover. The rest of the story revolves around these people and their attraction and involvement with the writer. The writer is amused with them and for his part tries to calm the girl. The story guides us around the different relationships the writer develops with each of the character he meets. The movie tries to show the social taboos for widows and teaches a wise philosophy that life is ahead of us and not behind. There is a pretty good description of Puri, Konark, and Rambha. At the time this movie was shot it was possible for Tapan Sinha to shot inside the Konark sun temple, also the bullock cart way to Konark is an extra for the viewer.
