Debut feature by sociologist and NGO activists
Bhave and Sukhtankar, known earlier for their
short film Chakori (1992). Two sisters from a
poor rural family sustain their relationship in
the face of a variety of problems. Their parents
(Suryakant, Baokar) are wage labourers who
also attempt to till their piece of infertile land.
Gauri (Dafardar), whose marriage is
abandoned when the groom dies, ends up a
prostitute in order to pay for her sister
Krishna’s (Kulkarni) future and her family’s
maintenance.
