Souten

Shyam, a working-class Indian living in Mauritius, tries to obtain money to buy a freighter and begins a romance with Ruku, the wealthy and snobish daughter of the bank president who gives him a loan, and offers his blessing of courting Ruku in marriage. But Shyam sees little amusement in Ruku's stereotyping of other middle and lower class people, and seeks solace by courting Radha, the poor daughter of his poverty-stricken accountant Gobal.
