Synopsis

Bharti Mandal, a qualified Dalit factory worker, dreams of a better-paying job but loses it to Priya Sharma, hired through connections. Bitter, Bharti hides her caste, but an unlikely bond forms when Priya confides her unhappiness in marriage and lack of real skills. Their intimacy carries unspoken queer desire—moments of tenderness, longing, and suppressed attraction. Yet caste and heteronormativity shape their fates: Bharti is humiliated at work, while Priya retreats into prescribed roles of wife and mother. In the end, Priya quits after giving birth, and Bharti finally secures the job. The story reveals how caste, class, and patriarchy deny both women the freedom to love and live authentically.
