The Women In Darkness

The untold story of a brothel; The rise of the oppressed; The victory of good over evil; The epic saga of love… A five-year old child, Thumri is kidnapped and sold to Rahima Begum’s brothel in Mohangarh by her father’s wicked manager. Begum brings Thumri up as her own daughter, protecting her from the darkness of their world. Time flies by. Grown up to a beautiful maiden, Thumri never compromises with injustice against courtesans by evil predators. By destiny’s wish, Sharat, the manager’s son, who has grown up to be an eminent doctor, visits Mohangarh. Though initially sceptical about the “uncivilized” dwellers of dark, he gradually realizes Thumri’s inexpressible pains and falls in love with her. Along with the brothel-dwellers, Sarat and Dr. Sen, their well-wisher, will Thumri be able to fight against rich merchants, religious orthodoxes and protect her brothel? Will she succeed in finding light amidst intoxicating darkness?
