Synopsis
While out shopping one evening, newlyweds Romita and Palash are attacked by a group of aggressive types, who beat the husband senseless and attempt to abduct the terrified Romita. Passers-by ignore her screams until another young woman, Jhinuk, comes to the rescue and drives away the assailants. Jhinuk, a schoolteacher soon to be married, is hailed as a heroine. The story hits the papers, and Romita's family formally thanks her. But Jhinuk wants to proceed against the assailants, and when they are arrested she identifies them. The more determined Jhinuk is to seek justice, the more resistance she faces from family and friends.
