As has been written in the Overview that Apurba falls in love wirh Aparna and marries her, that's not correct. Apurba's (Apu) marriage to Aparna was forced upon him due to cirxumstancea that arose. Apu had accompanied his friend to his maternal uncle's village for his cousin's marriage (Aparna was the cousin of Apu's friend). Apu was jobless then and marriage was far from his mind. When the bridegroom's party arrived for the marriage, the bridegroom was found to be mentally unstable. The marriage was called off but a replacement had to be found immediately else the bride would remain a spinster for life as was the prevalent practise then. Apu's friend coaxed him to marry his cousin and save her and her parents the stigma of society. He also promised to find him a job.
