Plot

[edit]

This story is set at the time of India's independence in 1947, during which time freedom for women in India was still unattainable. There were few customs in those days, the society had to struggle long to accept widow remarriage or prevent underage girls from marrying in the first place. Lakshmi, a widowed woman who is skilled in classical music, is forced to marry a man twice her age who is a kirtankar. He has two children from his previous wife. Lakshmi falls in love with Guruji through the daily routine of life. But Guruji stays away to keep some illusions at bay.
