Unbeknownst to Amit, Dolly manages the payments by selling her jewelry or by stealing money from her employers, a small accounting firm.
Dolly's younger cousin Kajal has recently arrived from rural Bihar to chase her dreams and aspirations in the city.
She moves into a hostel and experiences the freedom of big city life with her new friends Shazia and DJ Teja Gujjar.
When local political goons organize a raid on a well-known lovers' lane, Kajal and Pradeep are arrested for public indecency and taken to jail.
The two open up to each other, with Dolly speculating that her disorder is a result of a hymen re-stitching operation that she got to make it seem like she was still a virgin when she married Amit, and Kajal recounting her disappointment at her first sexual experience.
Kajal's office is vandalized by the political goons, and several of the women working at the call center quit their jobs, fearing for their safety.
