- Synopsis : Naya Daur is the story of two friends- Shankar ( Dilip Kumar ) the tongawala and Krishna (Ajit) the wood-cutter. They live in Karanpur, a village peopled by robust, rugged, simple men and women, despite the lack of an agricultural economy, thanks to the money earned by the tonga-walas and the wood-cutters working for the kind timber factory owner, Seth Maganlal ( Nazir Hussain ). The Seth owes his prosperity to the villagers and always wants to see them happy.
Kundan( Jeevan ) the Seth’s city-bred, money greedy son and Rajni ( Vyjayanthimala ), a beautiful young lady move into the village. Kundan, in his greed for quick profits, mechanizes the saw mill and brings misery to the villagers. Rajni with her beauty and her preference for Shankar generates bitterness between both the friends who love her.
Krishna joins hands with Kundan to make quick money and a bus is introduced– resulting in the tonga-walas being unemployed. Kundan throws a challenge; he offers to withdraw his bus if the tonga-walas can take their tongas faster than the bus to the village temple. Shankar accepts the challenge, and from this bet arises the spirit of Community Effort which Shankar infuses in his fellow-villagers. Watch the action that unfolds as Shankar unites a divided village and goes about the race between man and machine.
