Director Paromita Vohra's novel film explores the dearth of public lavatories in Mumbai, India, focusing on the scarcity of women's restrooms throughout the city.

Mixing non-fiction and fiction, Unlimited Girls follows Fearless explorations and conversations: wondering why women must always lead double lives, being feminist but not saying they are. If feminism changes the way we live, then do we change the meaning of feminism as we live it? Fearless returns to the feminist chat-room peopled by talkative feminist ladies who become her friend, to probe and argue and ask and constantly question what she sees and feels. In the end does she lose or confirm her ambivalence? Does she decide to own the label "Feminist" or does she decide it is irrelevant in these post-modern times?

The film explores the campaign waged by the Hindu right-wing organisation Vishva Hindu Parishad to build a Ram temple at the site of the Babri Masjid in Ayodhya, as well as the communal violence that it triggered. A couple of months after Ram ke Naam was released, VHP activists demolished the Babri Masjid in 1992, provoking further violence.
