LUST STORIES
M, an aspiring writer in the 1980s, struggles to get his serious literary works published. Publishers reject his manuscripts, claiming that readers prefer bold and entertaining stories over deep, philosophical writing. Disheartened, M shares his frustration with his friend Ved, who suggests he try writing sensual and exciting fiction instead.
Initially reluctant, M finds inspiration during a train journey when he encounters a confident and mysterious woman. This experience sparks a new idea, and he writes his first sensual story, adopting the pseudonym Mastram to protect his identity.
To his surprise, a local publisher eagerly accepts his work, recognizing its mass appeal. As Rajaram sees people secretly enjoying his story, he realizes that success has finally come—but at the cost of stepping into a controversial and morally challenging world. The episode sets the stage for his journey as Mastram, a name that will soon become legendary in the world of bold storytelling.
