Synopsis: In Hyderabad, meanwhile, Shabnam (Supriya Pathak) and Najma’s half-brother Sajid (Farooque Shaikh) are busy building up a torrid teenage love affair that manages to overcome the bounds of the burkha. The city’s vast rocky expanses and exquisite mosques are used to advantage and Sarhadi builds up the Hyderabadi atmosphere brilliantly.Purdah nashin homes with bamboo curtains to separate the men from the girls, colourful bangle-sellers and the little details that go to make life in the city’s middle class quarters are brought out by Sarhadi’s sensitive eye. Most of all the degenerate almost debauched, life-style of Shakar Ali Khan and his cortege is established through brilliant sequences in which the group sits around mapping out its strategy, the players almost theatrical in their exposition of mood nuances.Predictably, Khan repeatedly rejects the preferred bridal candidates picking in their place the vivacious Shabnam who has come with Sajid to spend an evening with them. The haggling with her parents begins and finally a deal is struck leaving Sajid out in the cold. The film progresses rapidly with Najma and Sajid trying to put a spanner in the works and Supriya Pathak’s Shabnam putting up a heart-rending but ineffectual protest.
