Gora is then very angry with Binoy, but due to his special affection for him cannot leave him.

Sucharita, who earlier saw Gora as inferior because of his fanaticism, supports Gora by not supporting Haran Babu in the debate. He gets into an argument with Haran Babu. Due to Gora's being Hindu, he does not get the same respect at Paresh Babu's house as Binoy did. Haran Babu is a special head of the Brahmo Samaj, and is going to marry Sucharita. There, Gora is introduced to Haran alias Panu Babu, who is Bengali but has special affection for the British. When Gora goes there, Binoy is already present, disappointing and angering Gora. Gora's father Krishnadayal, a good friend of Paresh Babu, one day urges Gora to visit Paresh Babu's house to inquire about his well being. Gora accuses Binoy of being attracted to Paresh Babu's daughter, but Binoy denies this. This leads to an argument between the two. At the time of the story there is an ongoing conflict between the Brahmo Samaj and Hinduism as Gora is a staunch Hindu who believes in untouchability, he forbids Binoy to meet Paresh Babu and his family. Along with them, he is introduced to Sucharita, the adopted daughter of Paresh Babu, and Satish, Sucharita's real brother.

And then Binoy is introduced to Paresh Babu, his wife Varadasundari, his eldest daughter Lavanya, middle daughter Lalita, and younger daughter Leela. Binoy helps them, and starts visiting their house. One day Binoy meets a Brahmo Samaji Paresh Babu and his daughter Sucharita when their wagon crashes outside Binoy's house. He has a special affection for Gora's mother Anandamayi, and regards Anandamayi as his mother as he was orphaned as a child. Binoy is a friendly and handsome young man. Gora's best friend is Binoybhushan aka Binoy. Despite not being handsome, Gora is considered attractive because of his heavy speech and high stature. Because of his physique, he is the head of his circle of friends. Gora is a young man with a well-built body, good stature, white complexion, and a heavy voice. The story mainly revolves around its protagonist, Gormohan alias 'Gora', a ‌staunch Hindu Brahmin. Their emotional development is shown in the background of the social and political problems prevalent in India towards the end of the 19th-century.

Other themes include liberation, universalism, brotherhood, gender, feminism, caste, class, tradition versus modernity, urban elite versus rural peasants, colonial rule, nationalism and the Brahmo Samaj. It is rich in philosophical debate on politics and religion. It is the fifth in order of writing and the longest of Tagore’s twelve novels. Gora ( Bengali: গোরা) is a novel by Rabindranath Tagore, set in Calcutta (now Kolkata), in the 1880s during the British Raj.
