Summary:
Mrs. Bani Gupta is a widow who lives alone in Calcutta. Like so many Indian women, she'd devoted her entire life to looking after her family. So when her husband died and her children left home, she felt she's lost her reason for living. It was only when she joined the West Bengal Women's Association and realized how many other women were in the same predicament that she discovered a new purpose to her life.
