The whole movie is about her journey , her acceptance of her profession ,the perils which go with this , the various kinds of clients she gets , the sisterhood these women share ... Lalitha as an older street walker often shares her own sad story with these girls. Even after being battered they cannot go to the police as they dont have any id . They are caught in some raid and the police too try to take advantage of them . No one comes to check on them when they fall sick . They have to help themselves.
A social service organisation comes to take their interview . When Geetu starts speaking a bit firmly they cut her interview abruptly saying they want only those crying and wailing types .
Not very young with age being their biggest enemy , she tries to better her life .
She gives a lot of money to a local agent who promises her visa and work in the gulf . Eventually he is arrested in Mumbai and she loses her money . She goes back to her profession . She has big dole ful eyes which show her helpless state perfectly .
When a co street walker dies , she adopts her 5 year old child . She has a dull slow walk in the entire movie wearing loose salwars to show her resigned subdued status . Over all a fine poignant drama showing their lives .
