Asmita is a story of a woman’s iron will-power. It’s the story of what a woman can do if she wants to and how she can turn the crushing defeat into a victory with flying colours. The only decisive factor is her own belief in that - yes, she can do it.

But suddenly this dream is shattered by Shekhar’s decision to desert them all.
Even though their marriage had happened after so many turbulent moments in Asmita’s family, the chief reason being the 10-12 years’ age difference between them, everything seems to be OK now. But Shekhar has now become aware of the gradual and inevitable downfall of his enthusiasm and work drive. He needs space and time to fulfill his ambitions. After all, that’s the precise reason of his coming to Mumbai from his small town. Asmita, on the other hand, was a rebel, an art school drop-out and a freelance journalist before marrying Shekhar.
15 years of married life, however, have not extinguished the fire in her belly. She flares up defiantly and seeks divorce. Her two daughters remain with her. After all, her world revolves around them.
At this point, Asmita starts and gradually unfolds in the drama of Asmita’s fight against the cruel world and also the vultures of the society, all set to suppress her.
Formidable, unyielding, unvanquished and firm on her feet with her head levelly on her shoulders she successfully carves her niche in the arena of literature. Gradually, all things start falling in place. Name, fame, glamour and everything.
Asmita, coming to terms with this, decides to leap into another blind alley - politics. Eventually, she manages to emerge as a key figure in politics also and at this point, Shekhar places a proposal before her...
