Himmatwala

An honest temple priest takes on more than he can handle when he bears witness to a murder and gives evidence in a court of law against a powerful landlord in his village. The landlord bribes his way to freedom and engineers a plot to ruin the priest’s reputation and his status among his peers in the village. Ashamed of his tarnished reputation, the priest commits suicide, leaving his wife and young children to face the atrocities of the evil landlord. The son flees the village and travels to Mumbai to begin anew, but returns years later to avenge the shame inflicted upon his family.
