Wiki.
Parineeta (Hindi pronunciation: [pəɾɪniːtaː]; transl. Married woman) is a 1953 Indian Hindi-language drama film starring Meena Kumari and Ashok Kumar , based upon the 1914 Bengali novella of the same name by Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay. The film was directed by Bimal Roy. This version of the film is considered by many to be the most faithful adaptation of the novella, particularly due to Meena Kumari's interpretation of the role of Lalita.
