About this movie

Vaidehi (Manisha Koirala) gets married to Raghuvir (Jackie Shroff), an NRI. Suffering the agony of an unhappy marriage, she decides to run away from him when she learns that she is pregnant and he wants to take the child away from her. In her pursuit for freedom, she meets Mythili (Mahima Chaudhury) a bride-to-be, Janaki (Madhuri Dixit) a theatre artist and Ramdulari (Rekha) a village midwife -- all of whom are victims of male chauvinism. They however refuse to be put down and fight for their rights.

this movie too good but manisha koirala role wrong hai kyunki wo dobara baap nahi ban sakta tha so bachhe ko baap ko de dena chahiye tha agar jackie ka behaviour theek nahi tha to talaak le leti but bachhe ko baap ko hi dena chahiye tha ek laachaar baap ko blaickmail kiya gaya hai es movie mein or es film ki saari story sirf esi couple se start huwi hai baaki saara masala faltu hai agar samjhauta ho jata to ye drama hota hi nahi thanks
