Set within the turbulent Nineteen Thirties, that is the story of a poor Chinese language hawker promoting his merchandise, Chinese language silk, within the streets of Calcutta. This was the time when China was repulsing a brutal assault of militarist Japan and when an outraged Rabindranath Tagore wrote to his buddy in Japan, the good poet Noguchi: “I want your countrymen, whom I really like a lot, not success however regret”. This movie holds the doubtful distinction of being the primary to be banned (although quickly) in impartial India.
