The story presents Bhakla and Birju, who are residents of Mahuabhata. They fight over land. Accidentally Birju dies after falling on a plough. Bhakla has a family so the villagers are not inclined to send him to jail. Instead they request that Ganjha, a lonely old man from the same village, confess to the murder. Ganjha gets life imprisonment. In the jail the jailor observes Ganjha's noble behaviour that lead him to believe that he can't be a murderer. The jailor appealed to the high court and the truth is revealed. Ganjha is released, and the villagers are sent to jail for hiding the truth. On their way to jail they realise that the people from the big cities are under the influence of the plant “bhulan”, and they are amazed that these people are not awake. Bhakla had a habit of saying “hao” (yes) before every sentence. When he is presented before the court the prosecutor proves Bhakla guilty of misusing his habit of saying “hao”. Bhakla gets the death penalty. He is later acquitted. Cast
