Theme
editThe film which the director has called a "serious film" is a psychological drama that deals with the dilemma of a woman. In the director's own words "I have always felt that a film should be something more than just a slice of life. In Ananya’s ethical dilemma we get the larger picture of how we can mould our behavioural pattern when some extraordinary events happen."[4]
Plot

When Anik is away for an office trip, Sudipta gets attracted to a young NRI Rana. Anik comes back and suspects something wrong. It is found out that Anik is suffering from Brain Tumour and he is admitted to hospital for treatment under surgeon Dr. Ashok Mukherjee. Anik’s physical condition gets worse.
