Eight-year-old Kanchan is always getting into mischief, playing pranks at home and around the village. He sees his father as a cruel demon who imprisons and oppresses his mother. In his dreams, the big city is El Dorado — Kolkata — but when he arrives, he finds that reality is harsher than he expected. The glimpses of reality he catches, however, are harsher than he expected, and the people he meets offer him an alternative view of the city. He learns the dialectics of life in the City of Joy: love and hate, honesty and dishonesty. He meets Mini, a small, loving girl, and her family, as well as folk singers, street hawkers, magicians, beggars and thieves. After struggling to survive, he experiences life as it is, only to return home to his village. This time, he returns a more mature person, having realised that his father is not a demon, but another victim of poverty who remains a loving father.<ref>{{Cite web \|last=Chandrima S.
