Story of this movie, Latest Movie Maharaj

Karsan is a progressive thinker and social reformer in pre-independence Bombay, living with his maternal uncle and aunt after the death of his mother. He is engaged to be married to Kishore, a devout believer of Maharaj “JJ”, the leader of the “haveli” that is their holy place. During the Holi celebration, Kishori catches the eye of JJ, and she is chosen to perform “charan seva” for him. The devout JJ followers community accepts that women in the community perform “charan seva”, which is actually indulging in sexual acts with JJ. Karsan sees Kishori and JJ in the act, and breaks off their engagement when Kishori is complacent with the practice and with JJ’s actions.

Later, Kishori realizes the error of her belief and JJ’s evil, but she has lost Karsan forever. Karsan makes clear to his family that he will not marry Kishori, and is turned out of the house as a consequence. His family are also devout believers, and believe Kishori has done nothing wrong.

Karsan finds that no one is ready to fight against the haveli and JJ. His mentor convinces him to forgive Kishori or at least give her a chance to atone. Before he can speak to her, he finds out that Kishori has taken her own life. Kishori has taken her life as a result of the mistake she made, and her final wish is for Karsan to reveal JJ’s truth to the world.

After reading Kishore’s final message to him, Karsan goes to confront JJ. JJ is confident that Karsan cannot change perceptions, and that their places in the world are set, with JJ playing the part of a god in their community, and Karsan as a devotee.

When others are unwilling to publish about JJ, Karsan starts his own paper to reveal the truth. The papers are intercepted by JJ and burned in the haveli. JJ closes all of the havelis in Bombay. The devout believers do not break their fasts before morning prayers at the haveli, and JJ places a condition that the havelis will not be opened until Karsan apologizes.

Karsan speaks to the protesting community members and convinces them that they do not need the haveli more than the haveli needs them, with the support of Viraaj. The community members pray to their idol placed by Karsan in the street and break their fast. JJ refuses to open the haveli doors even while the morning prayers continue on outside the haveli. Karsan gains confidence in his mission, and Viraaj joins as an employee at his newspaper. Meanwhile, JJ calls on Karsan’s father and threatens him to make Karsan apologize.

Karsan’s father comes to the newspaper and announces that he is going to disown Karsan if he does not apologize to JJ. Karsan does not relent, and his newspaper successfully circulates among the people. The community’s thoughts start to change, and they slowly begin to gain awareness of JJ’s exploitation and ill-intent. JJ files a defamation suit against Karsan, and Karsan’s uncle brings forward witnesses against JJ.

Shortly before the trial, the witnesses withdraw in fear, and Karsan’s press is burned down. Among the ruins of the press, Viraj confesses to Karson that she too was sent to JJ for “charan seva” as a child, where she fled when she realized that whatever was happening was wrong. She beseeches Karson to continue his fight, because his ideology must win. JJ’s wife Vahuji reaches Karsan’s home and gives him directions to another witness, a young woman, Leelavati, whom JJ had impregnated and tried to abort the child after refusing to help them. While Karson attempts to hide the young woman, JJ finds her and marries her off to one of his manservant. It is assumed that he has killed Leelavati’s brother as well.

With the date of the trial approaching, Karsan has no witnesses to fight against the defamation case. The trial begins with calling the haveli’s doctor to the stand, who reveals that he has treated JJ for syphilis. JJ lies that he had previously had a similar sounding disease which was non-venereal. Karsan brings light to JJ’s misinterpretations of scripture, and his exploitation of women and girls. As he speaks of the importance of not needing a bridge like JJ in order to reach god, women in the courtroom take Karsan’s side and testify against JJ.

In the end of this movie, Karsan is acquitted of the charges of defamation and criminal charges are filed against JJ. Karsan is recognized and applauded by the people for exposing JJ and as a social reformer, while JJ loses his followers.
