Defiled Forever
 Lajja / int_813afa05
comment
Defiled Forever: Janki is considered this for getting pregnant outside of wedlock, and even considered insane. Also, Sushma is considered this, even though Prakash only kissed her. (Her family actually mourns her as though she's dead.) Maithili, too, because she rejected a marriage to her wimpy college sweetheart (from old money), because of her fiance's father's greed. Offscreen, Raju marries her, so she won't have to be alone forever or have to kill herself to save her family's honor.

Happy Ending: Raghu starts treating Vaidehi properly, and she gives birth to a healthy baby girl in New York City whom she names Ramdulaari. Meanwhile, Raju is Happily Married to Maithili, and makes a living as a New York City cab driver rather than stealing. And Janki is no longer held in the Bedlam House, but performs in a theatre in N.Y.C, doing charity shows to raise money that support women's organizations back in India.
