Plot

The oldest of two sisters, Gauri (Renuka Daftadar), is getting married and there is festivity in the household. Elders of the village advise her to visit a temple before the groom arrives. Accompanied by her younger sister, Krishna,(Sonali Kulkarni) and her uncle (Sadashiv Amrapurkar), notices on the way back, in the newspaper, that groom's family had met with a fatal accident while coming to the village.

Gauri and Krishna's father (Suryakant Mandhare) is paralysed by the shocking news. The villagers shun Gauri as an ill omen. Soon, the family faces financial troubles, so they attempt to till their piece of infertile land to get some money. When nothing works out, their mother (Uttara Baokar) asks her brother to take Gauri to Mumbai for a job. Initially hesitant, he agrees but only on the condition her mother not ask any further questions about Gauri's whereabouts in the future.

Gauri's uncle forces her into prostitution and she starts sending money to her family every month. Things get better for the family and her uncle finds a groom for Krishna, a young idealist, Shesh Waghmare (Abhay Kulkarni), working with an NGO. Gauri visits the village for Krishna's marriage but their mother does not allow her to take part in any activities because of Gauri's unfortunate marriage incident and her way of earning money.

When Krishna discovers this, she questions their mother and convinces her to accept Gauri. When Gauri decides to leave the wedding ceremony and the village, Shesh's activist friend, Nivrutti Kamble (Sunil Sukthankar), proposes to her, in spite of knowing her past. Gauri stays in the village, never to return to her life as a prostitute in Mumbai.
