Plot
[edit]Saraswati is a schoolteacher engaged to Ravi. Their lives are affected by political corruption and the influence wielded by the people behind it. Ravi becomes aware of the wrongdoing and attempts to expose those responsible. His attempt places him in danger, and he is murdered before he can bring the matter to light.
Following Ravi's death, Saraswati is sexually assaulted.
The crimes committed against the couple reveal the vulnerability of ordinary people in the face of power and intimidation. Saraswati's students are deeply affected by the injustice suffered by their teacher and her fiancé.
Refusing to remain silent, the students unite to seek justice. They set out to identify and confront the people responsible for Ravi's murder and Saraswati's assault. Their campaign against corruption and abuse of power forms the central conflict of the film, with the students emerging as representatives of a younger generation determined to challenge social injustice.
