a Tamasha worker. Here, Mastar is badly humiliated by the leader of the troupe every now and then. In deep shock, he eventually becomes addicted to drink and tobacco. The villagers, on the other side, unveils a Statue of Guruji in the school compound itself, as a tribute to his noble deeds and his ideals. They also file a police complaint and request a detailed investigation of Guruji's murder. After realizing that she has brought a noble man like Guruji to her level, and is solely responsible for his downfall, Chandrakala decides to mend her ways.
