Do Bigha Zamin - B/W  (VCD Hindi)

Shambhu (Balraj Sahni) celebrates the arrival rains, after two years of drought with his son Kanhaiya and wife, Parvati (Nirupa Roy). His joy is shortlived, as the Zamindar wants Shambhu's land for putting up a factory. The zamindar manipulates and bribes the local officials into declaring Shambhu a defaulter, for not having repaid loans taken from the Zamindar.
Determined in holding on to his land at any cost, Shambhu goes to Calcutta to try and make money to repay the Zamindar. Feeling lost and lonely Shambhu and Kanhaiya make their way to a bustee (slum). There Shambhu learns to become a rickshaw puller, and Kanhaiya becomes a boot black. Meanwhile back in the village, Parvati has taken up work as a casual labourer for a construction company. Just when things seem to be working his way, Shambhu meets with an accident and is confined to bed. As the deadline for the repayment draws near, Shambhu is determined to take up pulling the rickwhaw again. Alarmed, Kanhaiya writes to his mother asking her to come to Calcutta,
On receiving the letter Parvati sets out to Calccutta, and then.
