Season 1

Introduction to the village of Vesaicha Vadgaon and the lore of Goddess Vesai. Ahilya, a brilliant student, learns of the custom requiring girls to marry upon puberty. The episode ends with the terrified realization of her own coming of age.

Ahilya witnesses her friend Saraswati being pulled out of school and married off, reinforcing her fear. She begins her deception, viewing her education as an act of quiet defiance against the inevitable.

The focus shifts to the domestic sphere. Ahilya’s mother, Lakshmi, grapples with the financial and moral pressures of the household. Ahilya narrowly avoids detection, raising the stakes of her secret.

The narrative explores the concept of "Log Kya Kahenge" (What will people say). The social surveillance of the village intensifies, and Ahilya realizes the burden of reputation that women are forced to carry.

Faith intersects with policing as the village priestess (Pujarin) and elders suspect that the purity laws are being flouted. The gatekeeping of the temple becomes a central conflict point.

The penultimate episode features the highest tension. The village systems mobilize to protect their customs, leading to a near-exposure of Ahilya’s biological reality. The "Taliban-like" monitoring reaches its peak.

The finale. Ahilya faces the consequences of her deception. The confrontation forces the village to choose between their 500-year-old superstition and the humanity of their daughters.
