The zamindar Pari Sundari was one of the notable indigo-rebel zamindars — a woman radiant like the midday sun. Protecting the tenants from the all-devouring claws of the indigo planter was her sole devotion. Hence, in the history of the indigo movement and through the literature of Mir Mosharraf Hossain, she became known among the educated for her love of her tenants. Pari Sundari was the zamindar of Kushtia-Sadarpur in the then Nadia district.

Under British rule, indigo cultivation and the indigo trade in this land, the misery they brought upon the tenants, and the revolt of conscious society and the farming community against indigo form an important chapter of history. Around indigo cultivation one finds a grim picture of the exploitation, oppression and injustice wrought on the tenants by the English sahibs, the kuthiyals and the zamindars, jotdars and moneylenders of this country. Under English rule, indigo was cultivated and traded in this land for nearly a hundred years, from 1795 to 1895. Indigo was grown on a wide scale in various places of West Bengal, including the present districts of Jessore, Khulna, Jhenaidah, Magura, Kushtia, Rajbari, Faridpur, Dhaka and Pabna. It was in this very region that the revolt against indigo cultivation took shape, known as the "Indigo Revolt". Litterateurs, journalists and educated society took up their pens against indigo cultivation.
