Reai (played by Chhabi Biswas) is born into a wealthy family that has been part of the landowning gentry for generations. Naturally, Reai inherits the family fortune, but his mind is not on managing this wealth properly. Reai has a passionate love for music and often spends large sums of money hosting concerts, inviting renowned maestros to perform. As a result, the wealth accumulated by the previous generation dwindles through Reai's repeated extravagances. Ma Xing (played by Gangapada Basu) is Reai's arch-rival; he is also a music enthusiast. The two engage in a competition to see who can host more extravagant concerts and question each other's taste in music. To defeat Ma Xing, Reai disregards his strained financial situation and squanders recklessly, even sacrificing his family's lives to satisfy his vanity. Ultimately, Reai's family is destroyed, and on the brink of madness after spending his last penny, he chooses death.
