Storyline
Four carefree, jaded middle-class bachelors from Calcutta head out for a holiday in the wilderness. Before long, each man undergoes his own journey of self-discovery.
Four friends from Calcutta who have very different personalities go on a holiday excursion into the country, in a tiny village where they set themselves up in a bungalow. A series of events, all connected to their respective reactions to their new environment, reveals their characters more deeply. Displaced from their customary sense of social rules, they engage Lakha as a servant. Having lost his wallet, Hari accuses Lakha of stealing it, strikes him, and sends him away.They meet a beautiful local woman, Duli whom Hari uses for some fast sex. Lakha ambushes him in revenge. The others become very friendly with two young women from the neighborhood who live on a comfortable estate. The inhibited Sanjoy does not dare to respond to Jaya's interest while Aparna leaves Asim after giving him her address on a five-rupee note. The friends depart again for the city, pretending to be unaffected by their experiences.
