A man Basanta Chatujje (describing himself as Angti Chattujje's brother) who couldn't stand bounds and chains bitten by wanderlust.

He marries a woman Harimati and returns home to his family with his wife. But after a few days unaware of the fact that his wife is pregnant, he leaves her to go on another journey. Subsequent incidents bring him back to his house, only to find he has a son and his wife is no more.
