A bittersweet family drama about sisterly bonds and sacrifice, following a young woman's journey from carefree youth in Banaras to hardship and self-sacrifice in Mumbai.

Badki and Chutki live a fun-filled life in Banaras, playing pranks, sneaking off to see a forbidden mujra, and soaking up all the excitement that goes on the ghats of the Ganga. Badki is aware that the family is in dire straits, but she and her mother protect Chutki at all costs. When things get worse, Badki decides to go to Mumbai and seek a living for the family.
