== Plot ==
Manish, a college professor, takes in Chaitali, a thief, and offers to support her to go straight. Chaitali lies that she is a widow when she isn't even married since she is the daughter of a fugitive and is brought up in a kotha (dancing house) by her protective stepmother. To hide her background, she lies, and that leads to more lies. Manish's brother Avinash is a lawyer practicing from home, and his bedridden wife Prabha accuses Chaitali of stealing a valuable necklace to which Chaitali quickly confesses. Before that, Chaitali, Manish and his mother had visited their family Guru for his guidance where Chaitali had confessed her life story to Manish. Out on the streets, she takes up dancing, which Manish misinterprets as her slap on his generosity. She decides to return money for the stolen necklace with earnings from her dancing but this is interpreted as arrogance and she is thrown out of the house. Soon, Avinash tells the truth to Manish as to why Chaitali confessed to stealing the jewellery.<ref>{{Cite book |chapter-url=https://books.google.com/books?id=azlpDwAAQBAJ&q=chaitali&pg=PT178 |title=Human Cinema: The Films of Hrishikesh Mukherjee |last=Rammesh |date=17 August 2018 |publisher=[[Notion Press]] |chapter=1975: Chaitali|isbn=9781643249551 }}</ref>
