The film is based on the Novel by Sharat Chandra Chattopadhyay called Devdas. Devdas (K.L. Saigal) and Paro (Jamuna) are childhood friends. When they decide to marry, Devdas' father disapproves the relationship as they belong to a very rich family. When Devdas is away in Calcutta for higher studies, Parvati's marriage is fixed with a wealthy zamindar, a widower with children older than his new young wife. When Devdas comes to know this, he drowns his sorrows in alcohol. His friend Chunilal introduces him to an attractive courtesan, Chandramukhi (Rajkumari). Chandramukhi decides to nurse Devdas. But still Devdas drinks more and more becomes sick and starts to meet Paro for the last time. He reaches her house and dies.
