Introduction

A Dirty Woman is a story of one eighteen-year-old, shy, and illiterate Muslim girl, Salma, who lived in a remote village of West Bengal, India. She was born in one of the poorest families, with three brothers and sister. The family had been struggling to survive, where daily two square meals were a dream.

The Turning Point

One day, one young bank officer, Aninda Roy, came to her life. It didn't last long, and Aninda disappeared from her life one day. Salma was trafficked and sold like an animal several times by the human traffickers. She was bought by one big man who made her a sex slave in his house for several years.

Hope and Transformation

Finally, Salma met Aninda one day. Aninda set her free. They lived under one roof but in two different worlds. Salma could not reconcile herself being thought of as a dirty woman. Her fate brought her to a dream city, New York, in America, with Aninda. She didn't confine herself within four walls but immersed in the ocean of learning. Aninda was her mentor, who constantly guided and inspired her. She was a changed lady when she returned back to her native village after many years.

Her Mission

Her final journey started there. She formed hundreds of self-help groups with those ill-fated and poor women who were victims of human trafficking and social injustices and living the most distressful life. It was a war of Salma for women empowerment.

Questions and Conclusion

Did she get success? Did she take her revenge on those human traffickers? What happened to Aninda, her savior?
