Plot
During World War-II, Rangoon is bombed and many dwellers and their families flee to nearby jungles. Balraj Sahni and his wife and son also have to leave their home. In the jungle, bombing continues and his wife dies in a bomb-strike. Balraj Sahni later becomes a rich lawyer in India and his son Dr. Gautam (Rajendra Kumar) is a UK trained doctor who volunteers to go to Japan to help deal with the horror of the radiation aftermath of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Lord Bertrand Russell in London, gives Gautam his blessings and best wishes for his travel to Japan. Russell, a pacifist and anti-war thinker (who appears in a cameo role) sets the tone of this 1967 film. Balraj Sahni reluctantly allows his son Dr. Gautam (Rajendra Kumar) to go to Japan. On arrival in Japan Dr Gautam takes up a role in a hospital for nuclear diseases. Meloda (Saira Banu) who was educated in India, speaks Hindi; though she is Japanese, meets Dr. Gautam in a Buddha park in Japan. Meloda's father Dr Akhira (Chetan Anand) is owner of the hospital where Dr. Gautam works. The storyline takes us through the stark and sometimes gory suffering that radiation victims endured; as a stark reminder of the long term damage caused by atomic weapons. When a group of fishermen are exposed to radiation from French nuclear tests in the Pacific, Dr Gautam mounts a daring rescue to help save the fishermen. Battling angry elements Dr. Gautam helps the fishermen survive, saving every last one of them - but at what cost? When viewed in the context of India-Japan relationship, beginning with the arrival of Buddhism in Japan, formation of the Indo-Japan Society in 1905 and Japan's support for Subhash Chandra Bose's INA, this film takes on a meaning beyond a love story. It is a cry against the horrors of atomic weapons, the enduring damage they inflict and martyrdom for a cause.
