An early marriage and a miscarriage take their toll on Meera’s health. She starts losing her vision, her husband Madhav wants to cure her on his own, refusing to consult a qualified doctor. Meera’s Brother takes her to a doctor against her will. But she refuses his medication, since an Indian wife must faithfully worship her husband like God. She is blinded by Madhav’s botched attempts to cure her. Like a dutiful Indian wife, the blind woman still continues to dote on her husband. The husband loves her in return. How much of his love is really a form of guilt and obligation for the faith shown in him? How much of her love is just out of her traditional outlook? Can their love withstand the tough challenge of life? The challenge comes in the form of a liberated woman with a mind of her own, much like Rabindranath Tagore’s vision for a 20th century India.
