The central characters of Jaari are Namsang and Hangma, a married Limbu couple. After a brief argument with her spouse Namsang, Hangma chooses to leave him by giving back his Yuparung (a sacred coin). She then marries a different man after falling in love with him. The jaari is claimed by Namsang and his family, but Hangma’s family refuses to pay, forcing Hangma into slavery in Namsang’s household until the jaari is paid.
