How will Rajaram face the hypocrisy of society? Will the "real" Mastram finally be exposed? Will Rajaram's sudden windfall arouse suspicion in his ever-supportive wife? Yet success remains elusive to Rajaram, as all the glory is attributed to his pseudonym Mastram. He churns out colourful stories about sex that his readers lap up. He adopts the pseudonym of 'Mastram' and thus becomes the first author of the first pornographic novel series in the Hindi language. Scandalised at first, Rajaram accedes to the "compromise", and thus discovers another facet of literature - erotica. It's on everybody's mind, but no one would admit it.
He introduces Rajaram to the salacious and secret world of soft pornography. Rajaram is initially miffed, because he is unable to decode masala and then he meets Chacha, an eccentric, old village idiot who shows him the spicier side of life and of saying it out loud. They agree to publish Rajaram's story about the plight of a small town girl, but only if he would add sensational elements or masala to his dull tale. Hope comes in the form of fledgling publisher duo - Purohit and his brother-in-law, Bharti. Turning a deaf ear to the mockery, Rajaram starts showing his work to several publishers who turn him down and discourage him.
To his utter surprise and delight, Renu supports his decision, and starts doing odd jobs from home, while Rajaram focuses on his writing.īut being a stay-at-home writer doesn't go down too well with nosy neighbours and Rajaram becomes the butt of all jokes in the neighbourhood. Motivated by her encouragement, Rajaram starts stealing time from his humdrum work routine to write and eventually he quits his job, when his boss publicly humiliates him, and derides his aspirations. No one takes his litterateur aspirations seriously, least of all his uncle, who marries him off to Renu (Tasha Berry).Īlthough a simpleton, Renu wholeheartedly supports her husband's ambition.
