Plot
Roshni, a middle-class woman in Bombay, lives with her widowed mother and younger sister, Anju. Inspired by her late father, a Police Inspector, Roshni joins the police force, undergoes training, and is appointed to the Santa Cruz Police Station. She garners sufficient evidence to arrest Dheeraj Kumar, the son of Home Minister Anna Patil. However, the court acquits Dheeraj, forcing Roshni to resign. Tragically, Dheeraj and his gang then rape Anju, leaving her in a coma. When the police refuse to act, Roshni confronts Anna Patil and Dheeraj, becoming a fugitive accused of murdering two of Patil’s associates. Roshni is eventually arrested, imprisoned, and tortured. Her mother’s efforts to locate her prove futile. Roshni struggles to find a lawyer willing to take her case until Avinash Kapoor, an unemployed lawyer, agrees to defend her. After meeting Roshni in prison and hearing her story, Avinash assures her of her release. During the trial, Roshni testifies, but Avinash betrays her, discredits her evidence, and has her committed to a mental institution. The narrative explores the profound impact of these events on Roshni and her mother.
