Sanya Dhingra, a chemistry genius in Karnal, is struggling to find work but makes a living by giving tuitions. She is unexpectedly offered the role of Quality Control Head at Cando Condoms by its owner, Ratan Lamba. She accepts on the condition that her colleagues and family never learn her true job, and signs a year-long contract. She keeps this secret, telling her family she works at an umbrella factory.

She hesitantly agrees to the lucrative salary of 50,000 Rs but demands secrecy about her employment. She informs no one at home and pretends to work at an umbrella factory. The contract binding her for a year stirs pressure as she balances pride and fear of social ridicule. She secretly fears exposure could ruin her plans.

At a friend's engagement, Sanya meets Rishi, who sells Puja items. The two fall in love and plan to marry, but Sanya continues to hide her condom factory job from him due to religious and cultural expectations. She confides to her sister about the hidden truth, sowing tension in the relationship.

Nisha, Sanya's sister-in-law, collapses in the kitchen and is found to have had multiple abortions and miscarriages linked to long-term birth-control pill use. The doctors reveal a weakened body, pressuring Sanya to rethink contraception. Nisha's story reveals Rajan's religious aversion to condoms.

Sanya confronts Nisha about not using condoms and learns about Rajan's objection to condoms. She coerces Rishi to start using condoms and succeeds. She shares the victory with Nisha and asks her to persuade Rajan as well.

Sanya organizes a meeting with Karnal's women to educate them about the side-effects of birth-control pills and promotes condom use. The plan hinges on women pressuring their husbands to adopt safe sex. The movement begins to spread through the town.

Increasing numbers of men visit Madan Chacha's store to buy condoms, driven by the women's demand. Madan Chacha tries to steer them away with the false hope of sex without condoms, hoping to suppress the campaign. The effort to change male behavior creates social friction.

Enraged men storm the Kalra household brandishing a newspaper announcing that Sanya tested condoms, exposing Sanya's deception about her job. Rajan demands that she choose between her marriage and her profession. Sanya stands firm for the noble cause and decides to leave the house.

Refusing to abandon her mission, Sanya sets up a shed outside the school where Rajan teaches to provide sex education to students who avoid the topic. The idea gains interest as students begin to turn up for clarifications and honest discussions. Rajan tries to suppress the effort by reporting her to the police.

Rajan calls the cops and Sanya is arrested for indecency. Rishi intervenes, bailing her out despite his brother's protest and apologizes for the misunderstanding. He reaffirms his support for Sanya's fight.

Sanya and Rishi set up classes at the Kalra household for students with broad community support, except Rajan who tries to thwart them. Nisha and Mini stand up to Rajan, leading to his acknowledgment of his mistake. He apologizes to Sanya and publicly supports her educational mission.

The movement gains momentum as more students seek sex education and safer practices. Sanya's work shapes a new conversation in Karnal, challenging conservative norms and encouraging responsible choices. Rajan's stance shifts, and the community gradually embraces open discussions on sexual health.
