Gaja Gamini, played by Madhuri Dixit, is a mysterious women and a confusing as well as arousing personality for men. She appears in four different characters in the movie. One is that of a blind girl called Sangeeta. She inspires many women of her village to break free from the shackles of a male dominated society and carve a niche for herself. The other character is Shakuntala, where other women are jealous of her beauty but men love her and she also charms the animals in the forest. She is the subject of Kalidas’s poems.

Gaja Gamini aka Mona Lisa is the subject of Leonardo Da Vinci’s paintings. Also there is Monika who is a confusing character and represents the woman of the new millennium. Another aspect of the movie shows how a wall is put between two centuries and the difference between science and art. In science only the mind is used but in art the mind as well as the heart is used.

The movie is directed by M.F Hussain and produced by Rakesh Nath. The music is composed by Bhupen Hazarika. The cinematography is by Ashok Mehta.
