What happens
Ekhoni (also Ekhonee; English: Right Now) is a 1971 Bengali film directed by Tapan Sinha, starring Aparna Sen, Swarup Dutta, Moushumi Chatterjee, Mrinal Mukherjee, Chinmoy Roy and others. Based on the award-winning novel of the same name by Ramapada Chowdhury, Ekhoni was one of the earliest films to address the problems of urban youth, and to replace the individual hero by a collective protagonist. At the 19th National Film Awards, it won the National Award for Best Screenplay. It also won two BFJA Awards. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
