The film begins with a Sanskrit shloka which is one of the principles of the ancient Indian teacher,
philosopher and economist, Chanakya’s teachings. According to this postulate, time is the greatest
leveller, which provides both nurturing as well as destruction to living beings. From something as big and
macro as that, the film swiftly zeroes into present day in the state of Gujarat where a team of doctors
is gearing to fight the Covid-19 pandemic.
Further, the film traces the journey of Vinayak, a 28-year-old man who goes to a public hospital to get a check-up for symptoms. On the basis of his symptoms
and recent travelling history, he is admitted into the isolation ward of the hospital. The film follows his
journey to recovery and simultaneously offers health announcements and guidelines for public
awareness.
