Synopsis
The film is set in a rural village located around Banaras, where women's education is not widely accepted. The protagonist, Geeta, is a teenage girl raised by her progressive father, Vidyadhar, who is determined to provide her with a proper education, regardless of societal disapproval. However, when Geeta fails her matriculation exams, her father cancels her marriage proposal and insists that she must pass her 10th grade exams before considering marriage.[4]
The story follows Geeta's journey as she navigates societal challenges, family dynamics, and her relationship with Kundan, a boy who supports her ambitions. Kundan, despite being less educated than Geeta, breaks traditional gender norms by standing up for her education and supporting her aspirations. The film also highlights the inefficiencies and corruption in the Indian education system, with a climax centered around a major academic scam involving the top students being called for re-examinations.[5][6]

Reception
