It explores the colourless world of widows in Varanasi whose lives are bleached like their white sarees.
But the pristine exterior hides the devious machinations of criminal masterminds who are out to exploit these unfortunate women.
Things get complicated when a young police officer comes to investigate the shelter but little does she know about the dangers that await her as she disguises herself as one of the inmates of the shelter in order to unearth the truth.
