Household chores continue to be a form of unpaid labour which is overly glorified without truly acknowledging women's efforts that go into it. The short film interacts with the same idea through the experiences of two men who perform some of these chores when quarantined at home following the coronavirus lockdown.

The core intention of the film is to question superstition and how it comes to thwart the progress of rational, logical thought. It adopts a humorous approach to convey the same to the viewer. The scene is of a morning when a man is blessing his new car. A neighbor passing by, however, has different plans up his sleeve, and thus, an interesting exchange soon unfolds between them. <br><br> The narrative is marked by its verve and cheeriness, but could have benefited from a closer attention to a seamlessness of the edit.

The film is your quintessential sibling relationship where you will fight till the very end about the
smallest details to avoid doing a chore. This means that you would quarrel over the literal and
suggestive meanings of the words your mother actually uttered to determine whose turn it was to do
the grocery run this time. <br><br> However, it also means that, like all siblings, beneath all your quarrels lies affection,
and the film doesn’t forget to draw that out as well.
