Chaitali vit dans un monde très différent de celui de Hrishikesh Mukherjee, où la plupart de ses films sont restés à l'écart de la représentation des couches les plus sombres de notre ordre social. Le récit est centré sur Chaitali (Saira Banu dans le rôle-titre), une femme qui a été forcée par ses circonstances et son éducation malheureuse à occuper un espace qui la hante constamment, mais dont elle ne parvient pas à s'échapper. En créant un contraste frappant, sa vie fusionne avec un foyer urbain de classe moyenne Hrishikesh Mukherjee plus typique, plein de valeurs familiales et de droiture.
