Neerja was born like any other child, but there was a stark difference between a normal kid and her; she was born in Sonagachi, an area considered the largest brothel in Asia- a home to sin, deceit, debauchery, and filth. With its countless brothels and immoral revelries, Sonagachi was loathed by every moral soul in the city. This is where she was born to Protima, one of Sonagachi’s prostitutes. Protima struggled to save her daughter from becoming another victim of man’s limitless appetite for lust. Despite having a problematic economic situation, she sent her to the best school and later to college so her daughter could get the best education. On the other end, seeing her mother slog it out day in and day out working as a nurse and doing other menial jobs, which of course was a façade Protima had put in front of her daughter, made Neerja feel the pain of her mother and motivated her to do good in life. However, it seemed like every girl born in Sonagachi had the same fate.
