The story is about choices, dilemmas and a sense of duty. When Aakash is informed by the doctor that his father has dementia, he finds himself at a crossroads - to either leave his job to take care of him, or to find a way to move out of this situation, even if it takes him on a path far away from his father.
The film attempts an engagement with the same events and developments, offering a sincere portrayal of the reasons behind the decision Aakash makes. It not only mentions practical problems of a household's finances, but also how they are tackled in the form of freelancing, and by making other compromises. It further attempts a glimpse into the struggles of carers, and concludes with an important message about loving and taking care of parents, family members and fathers in their old age or during their moments of need.
