Set against the backdrop of modern-day India, the film explores how individuals grapple with their inner turmoil, societal expectations, and the weight of familial obligations.
The story revolves around Meera, a young woman who has spent her entire life living up to the expectations of her conservative family.

She is constantly torn between her desire for personal freedom and the pressure to uphold her family’s honor and traditions.
As the story unfolds, Meera finds herself in a deep emotional conflict when she receives an opportunity to study abroad, something she has longed for her entire life. However, her father, who has always had a firm grip on her decisions, vehemently opposes her leaving, fearing it will lead to her distancing herself from their cultural roots.
