Dr. Madhurika (1935)

Dr. Madhurika (Sabita) is a 'modern' young woman dedicated to her profession who advocates birth control to limit population growth. She marries Narendra (Motilal) on condition that he foregoes children, and does not interfere with her practice or with her choice of friends. The film then presents her as neglecting her home and provoking her husband's jealousy with her relationship with a smarmy colleague, Dr. Gaurish (Patel). When Narendra attends to Dr. Gaurish's suffering wife and then to a starving stranger, Indu (Shaligram), Madhurika gets jealous and agrees to become a dutifully domesticated wife.
