Plot

Yamuna, the protagonist of our story belongs to a very poor family. She lives with her teenage son Lakshman and husband who has an open illicit relationship and spends her money and jewellery on the other woman. After being publicly humiliated by her husband, Yamuna leaves her village and arrives in Mumbai to stay with her aunt, Akke who is equally poor and lives with her husband in a single room. Her aunt supports her and they start leading a normal life. Yamuna spends most of the day looking for a job because she doesn't want to be a burden on her aunt. Frustrated one day she tries to find what job Akkey does. She follows her to Sir J. J. School of Art and finds out that she is a nude model for the students of arts college.

After a minor tiff on the nature of the job Akke reveals to Yamuna that she has been doing this for past 15 to 20 years and it is a noble work of education. After some thought, she asked Yamuna if she would like to do the job. After initial hesitation, Yamuna agrees and they go to her college. Yamuna starts with her job as a nude model and gets a decent amount of money. Along with that she also does housekeeping jobs to earn extra income. There is only one student who seems to care about her while the rest of them are oblivious to her presence.

She is happy with her job because it funds the education of her son. One fine day she finds paintings in his school bag and figures out his inclination towards arts. Both the ladies fear that one day Lakshman would join the same college and their secret would be exposed. So it is decided that they would send him to a relative in Aurangabad for higher education. Lakshman vehemently protests this because understand that Mumbai offers better education opportunities than Aurangabad. He is forced to leave Mumbai and is very bitter about this. Life continues, Lakshman constantly demands money for his education. Yamuna takes up private assignments reluctantly to fulfil is demands. However, this one student from her college always accompanies her because she is not comfortable posing nude outside the secure premises of the college. One day a very renowned artist M. F. Hussain arrives in Mumbai and she is requested to pose nude for him. After a few days there is violent protest regarding this nude painting and protesters attack the college and destroy the nude paintings. All are scared but it is Yamuna who is the first one to resume work.

Later, Akke suffers from joint pain and is unable to continue with her work. One day when Lakshman arrive home, he accuses Yamuna for prostitution and leaves home. He also tells her that he would not be pursuing education anymore because he is fed up of this life of poverty & wants to go to gulf. Yamuna is deeply shattered and feels that one day she would suffer the same fate of Akke and die in pain, agony and poverty. With no more motivation to live, she commits suicide. Lakshman when returning from his work, checks that there is an exhibition of nude paintings in the same college. Out of lust, he decides to visits the exhibition. When he sees a nude painting of his mother he attacks the artist.
