It is the lines, “Sirf ghubgroo pahen lene se aurat tawaif nahi banti hai. Din ke aur raat ke saare hunar seekhne padhte hai,” by Richa that open the trailer and gives glimpse to the life of a courtesan.

The trailer then moves on to the fight for India’s freedom from British rule, where Aditi’s Bibbojaan,a courtesan from Mallikajaan’s district joins the fight.

What leaves an impact is a line by Bibbojaan, who says: “Ek baar mujrewaali nahi mulkwali bankar sochiye.”

As the nawabs enter, there is love and betrayal.
