A man is cursed with lure while a woman is blessed with control. This is a time-tested universal truth which continues to be the same in the 20th-century as well. Dr. Madhukar Hirve (Mohan Joshi), also known as Madhu, and Seema (Neena Kulkarni) are a happy married couple in Pune. Madhu is a well-known surgeon and Seema is a simple, god-fearing, perfect stereotype of a devoted Indian housewife. Madhu's anesthetist colleague, Dr. Dinesh Kirtikar (Prashant Damle), is a bachelor with great sense of humour, and the beautiful Dr. Beena Karnik (Varsha Usgaonkar) soon joins as Madhu's personal assistant in his hospital. Madhu is instantly attracted to Beena during her tenure, while Dinesh is also trying his luck with her. However, Madhu eventually takes the chance and begins an extramarital affair with Beena, who also gives in to his advances. After discovering Madhu's progress in his affair, Seema brings Beena home as her husband's second wife in spite of being married to him. She treats Beena with lot of love and affection and changes her own lifestyle to teach her husband a lesson. Will Seema be able to make Madhu realise his mistake with her humble ways?
