At eighteen, Arti is told she is getting married. She is not asked. In a small Bihari village, where rituals matter more than choice, she steps into a haveli draped in lights, laughter, and customs she barely understands.

Her husband, Guddan, is not cruel - but he carries the weight of a culture where marriage is ownership, not partnership. Every night draws Arti deeper into a world where her duty is assumed, her voice subdued. Watching her closely is a caged Mynah, fluttering, falling silent, breaking free, only to return. Is consent truly possible in a marriage where even the wedding itself was never her choice? And is silence agreement - or merely survival? Marital Consent is a haunting tale of duty, desire, and the blurred line between acceptance and captivity.
