Summary: Inspired by the atmosphere of folk-tales, the
film tells of Ghunuram (Malhotra), a quarry
worker who returns to his native village of
Nonpura to participate in its annual festival as
the celebrated Tiger Dancer and to marry
Radha (Archana), the daughter of the drummer
Sibal (Rao, referring to his earlier role in
Chomana Dudi, 1975). However, Ghunuram’s
dance is eclipsed by a real-life leopard show
staged by a circus. In addition, Archana falls in
love with a circus performer. In desperation
and encouraged by Sibal’s drumming,
Ghunuram enters the leopard’s cage and
challenges it to a duel, which he loses.
