Set during the Bangladesh Liberation War of 1971, the film focuses on a love couple and beggars and stars Mamnun Hasan Emon, Kusum Sikder, Masum Aziz, and Abul Hayat.

As a father, he has familial obligations that he could not abandon: he begs in the streets through rain and shine to make his dream a reality — to ensure that his daughter, Swapna, completes her education as a university student.

His attitude to life is different and does not have any regrets over his poverty, rather he enjoys begging as he sings in his native tongue, the Bengali language.

The senior Talukder tries to implant progressive ideas to his grandchildren because the present generation are not aware at all of this liberation struggle.

Niloy, a scion of this family, is in contrast with the poor Swapna, the university student daughter of Nura the beggar.
