Plot

Shonai is a man-servant in the house of Gazi, a rich man. The son of Gazi, Halim, is mentally unstable, and he murders a woman who worked in that house. But Gazi insists Shonai take the responsibility of the murder instead of Halim, and leaves him alone in an island named "Monpura", where he falls in love with Pori, the daughter of a fisherman. Gazi, seeing Pori one day, intends to marry his son, Halim, with her, although he pledged to Shonai that he would propose Pori's father for Shonai’s marriage. At first, her father did not accept the proposal, for he did not want to let her daughter marry a maniac. But when Gazi wanted to give his property to Pori, he accepted the proposal. When Shonai discovers Gazi's plot, he went to Pori's house to meet her father. But her father insults him for wanting to marry her being a poor with no land or property. Then Pori & Shonai decided to flee on the next night. Just when Shonai was about to leave for Pori, he got caught by the police for the murder case. Pori waited all night that went in vein. Subsequently Pori was married to Halim, against her will. She was very unhappy with Halim as he's a maniac. One day her chachi and father came to visit her, and chachi gave her hope. So Pori was waiting for Shonai. Shonai also wanted to be free to meet her. Upon realizing that Pori cannot get over Shonai, wife of Gazi said that Shonai would be executed on Friday at 12:01 am so that Pori might forget Shonai. However, Shonai was proven innocent and was released on Saturday, although Pori, who thought that he will be executed on Friday, killed herself by drinking poison at midnight that day. After Shonai arrives the next morning, he finds out and feels devastated by Pori's death.
