The film is based on the aftermath of the 1984 riots involving a section of Congress party activists and Sikhs in Delhi and other parts of northern India. Congress party activists targeted and killed thousands of Sikhs.
Yukta Mookhey plays the character of Anjali, who is a victim of the riots and is pushed into prostitution. Anjali’s mother is raped by the rioters, and her father is shot dead. Anjali grows up with traumatic memories of her childhood.
Anjali is one of many women working as a prostitute in Kamathipura (a red-light district in Mumbai, where filming also took place); every night each of these women meets with a new ‘Sahab’ (translation: Sir, Master or Boss).
After some unexpected incidents, Anjali stumbles upon her parents' killers and starts hunting them down one by one. In the process, she realizes that violence will not help her get her parents back, and that even after taking revenge she still cannot not erase her traumatic childhood memories, leading her to take an unexpected decision.
