When Salim exercises his Muslim polygamist right and marries a second wife, Leela leaves him. To repay the debt she owed her dead father, she decides to marry the man he always wanted for her A[a¬a Shiva, a married man. As Leela traces her seven steps around the marital fire, she recounts her journey through love, elopement, marriage, divorce, and a second marriage A[a¬a her journey from being the first wife to the other wife.
