==Synopsis==
Abhagi, a lower cast woman, is a poor village woman, left by her husband, and lives with her son, Kangali, in a small mud hut. They are happy with each other. Abhagi falls in love with Yamraj when she sees him in a play, and is affected by his words. He only takes good-looking women in his chariot to burn them in a fire. Abhagi has always dreamed of fire from his son after death. After the death of Ginnima, Abhagi sees a chariot coming out of the sky in the smoke where Ginnima was burned, and it takes her away to the sky. Abhagi dreams of her death just like Ginnima's. On the day of her death, she gets high fever and dies. Before her death, Abhagi tells her son that she wishes for Sindoor and alta and that he will burn her in the wood. Kangali fulfils all her wishes, but he can't arrange the wood for burning. Everyone scolds him saying that he doesn't have to burn his mother in wood as she is lower cast. He has to bury his mother's dead body. The fire, Abhagi wished all her life, now is in the eyes of Kangali.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |last=Roy |first=Sudeshna |date=2024-04-11 |title=O Abhagi hits at age-old oppressive tools, untouchability and patriarchal norms |url=https://www.telegraphindia.com/entertainment/o-abhagi-hits-at-age-old-oppressive-tools-untouchability-and-patriarchal-norms/cid/2012708 |website=Telegraph India |access-date=24 April 2024 |archive-date=23 April 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240423052838/https://www.telegraphindia.com/entertainment/o-abhagi-hits-at-age-old-oppressive-tools-untouchability-and-patriarchal-norms/cid/2012708 |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.indulgexpress.com/entertainment/cinema/2024/Apr/06/bangladeshi-actress-rafiath-rashid-on-her-tollywood-film-o-abhagi|title=Bangladeshi actress Rafiath Rashid on her Tollywood film, 'O Abhagi'|first=Sharmistha|last=Ghosal|date=6 April 2024|website=Indulgexpress|access-date=24 April 2024|archive-date=24 April 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240424032623/https://www.indulgexpress.com/entertainment/cinema/2024/Apr/06/bangladeshi-actress-rafiath-rashid-on-her-tollywood-film-o-abhagi|url-status=live}}</ref>

== Reception ==
A review noted, "The spoken language of the film is totally un-Sarat Chandra-esque: major use of ‘cuss words’ and abusive language to some ears could sound too harsh, especially for those raised in a ‘''bhadro''’ atmosphere and with Victorian morals, who are either unaware or prefer to overlook the subaltern lingo. Anirban has come out of the mould of following the story to a T. He has put in his interpretation, added characters of his own and created nuances."<ref name=":0" />
