[edit] Story
A despotic tax collector, Subedar (Naseeruddin Shah), imposes his rule on a village. All the villagers except a protesting schoolteacher, try to make him happy by satisfying all his whims. The drama starts when the beautiful Sonbai (Smita Patil) is to be surrendered to the lecherous Subedar. She takes refuge in the courtyard of a spice factory run entirely by women. She is protected by an aged watchman who closes the gates to Subedar's men.
