The day after Holi. Former SHO Adhirath Jatav, recently dismissed from the Delhi Police, happens upon a murder?the body of a young woman, her insides split open, is found inside a farmhouse on the outskirts of New Delhi. A chance encounter with the woman?s mother clears some mystery?she was from a neighbouring village, a beautician and a presumed prostitute, with a string of fake names. Her poverty and social status had made her an outcast? her death is considered not a tragedy but an inconvenience. While the police investigate half-heartedly, Adhirath finds himself drawn to the case. He feels a connection with this woman who, much like him and his ?untouchable? wife, had had to claw her way through life to secure a place for herself in society. Over time, Adhirath grows protective of the dead woman? her reputation and her dignity?and determined to find her killer.
