Plot
editThe story unfolds around Gunja, a love-child born in the tribal enclave in rural Maharashtra. Raised by her mother Babhali and stepfather, a tribal activist and leader, Gunja's life takes an unexpected turn when a renowned journalist, Kabir, visits their village to interview her stepfather. Amidst a stormy night, circumstances compel Gunja to spend the night in Kabir's room at the Tourist Lodge.
Despite their innocence, local customs lead to pressure on Kabir to marry Gunja. However, Kabir, already engaged to his girlfriend Mrunmayee in the city, refuses to acknowledge the ceremony. Instead, he leaves the decision to Gunja regarding their future. Choosing to accompany Kabir to the city, Gunja takes on the role of a maidservant. As she begins her studies in the city, Gunja gradually finds comfort and happiness in her new surroundings, endearing herself to Kabir's family, who come to appreciate her joyful disposition.
