Plot
Sitaara reveals that she is the surviving sister of a deceased protective and proud zamindar. She was always kept indoors and restrained by her brother, as was the custom of rich landlords of the time. The zamindar had heavy debts and concealed this fact from the people of the village, hiding the misfortune behind the walls of his palace, with hopes of winning a case in the court that would restore the ancestral wealth and thence, the glory of his family.
