CHINGI - A Movie Based on Female Foeticide

CHINGI is the story of a very happy married couple staying in city of Mumbai, (Rohan Date & Aarti Date)

Rohan’s parents come from native place for change & stay with them.
(Ravindra Berde & Ila Bhate)

Rohan and Aarti both are working couple are very busy with their routine life. They prefer family planning from last three years.

As it always happens Aarti’s mother in law starts demanding Aarti to have a baby boy. Aarti gets uneasy from this force of baby boy demand and she shares her emotions with her husband rohan who in turn laughs it out without paying much attention.

Aarti’s parental family is basically a middle class family. Aarti’s mother & father stay like a very happy close knit family with their four daughters Priyanka, Rinku, Veena & Saloni (Aditi Sarangdhar, Sneha Wagh, Harshali Zine, Swini Karvir)

Rohan suggests a colleague from his office Shyam (Sandip Bhansali) for Priyanka. Shyam’s Mother & Father come to see Priyanka. Shyam’s family likes Priyanka very much, but after hearing family background of Priyanka, Shyam’s Mother refuses to accept Priyanka in her family as daughter in law although Shyam is very keen for Priyanka.

When Aarti gets pregnant she gets very much worked up due to constant demand of her mother in law for baby boy and also Priyankas marriage proposal being refused also gets on her head like a big jolt .

Although we have progressed tremendously in the fields of science & technology, our thought process is still limited to the old customs & traditions that are been followed ever since. The biggest example is that till today we are not excited when a girl child is born. Today also we don’t like a girl child being born in our family. First child should always be a
boy that is our keen expectation.

All this thinking affects Aarti & she takes some important decision without consulting Rohan.

ALL ABNORMAL THINGS ARE STARTED HAPPENING IN THEIR NORMAL LIFE & THE HEART TOUCHING STORY OF CHINGI STARTS FROM HERE………………….
