Teen Kanya is an anthology film based upon short stories by Rabindranath Tagore, as a tribute on the authors centenary. The title means "Three Daughters", and the films original Indian release contained three stories, with three central female characters linking the stories together. The Postmaster concerns an orphan girl who grows attached to the postmaster she is caring for after he teaches her to read and write. Monihara is a supernatural tale about a woman obsessed with the jewels her husband buys for her. Samapti follows a young man who falls for an unconventional girl from his new village instead of his arranged bride, the daughter of a respectable family. The international release did not include Monihara, and was released as Dui Kanya, or "Two Daughters".
The first story is about Nanda, a young man who leaves Calcutta to work as a postmaster in an isolated malaria-infested village. The postmaster is looked after by a young orphan girl, Ratan. His only solace in the village is in teaching Ratan how to read and write. The second story is about a student, Amulya, who returns to his village after finishing his exams. His widowed mother is very anxious for him to marry, and has already picked out a girl. He rejects his mothers choice and, being forced to choose some girl, marries a lively tomboy who is not ready to give up her freedom.
