He is a labourer who enjoys life with his friends consisting of Hanuman , Tanke , Dhikare , and an old man. They usually drink together in a local liquor shop. Tulke works for Babu Raja , a wealthy village merchant and his son Binay. Babu Raja is a dictator who has captured the properties of various people in the village and also has two workers to serve him whom are Suke and Fuli. Tulke has a big crush on Fuli but he is unable to express it. One day Tulke sees his friend Hanuman with the maoist rebels and begins to nag Hanuman to let him join the rebel group . Binay and Babu Raja use Fuli to manipulate him and invite Tulke for dinner to get more information where Tulke while intoxicated with alcohol reveals Hanuman's secret. Babu Raja and Binay plan to kill Hanuman and Tulke the next day but Fuli saves Tulke by blaming him of molestation. Tulke is humiliated and exiled out of the village where he runs away to kathmandu , the capital city.
