The film presents a heartwarming story of hope, and an iron resolve that overcomes all odds. A child and his older sister, Rachna try to make it in the world on their own. She works at a small shop but is forever preoccupied with her brother not going to school and taking care of the duties expected of him. The younger brother, on the other hand, finding himself too oppressed by the demands of a school that seems to serve him very little, embarks on a journey of his own. 
Nestled at the heart of the story is the idea of following your dreams, and how this pursuit has the potential of becoming the fire that triumphs over all obstacles. The chemistry and performances of the actors are effortless and allow the film to convey all of these intentions and ideas with ease. 

The two children are notable in the energy and the sibling equation they bring to life. The camerawork shows expertise, even if a little loosening of control appears in the form of lighting towards the end. The final result, however, remains straightforward and successfully shares a story of sibling love, the importance of dreams, and the hope to fulfill them.

The short film promises to be a moving portrayal of a crumbling familial structure. With Sanjay Mishra as the father, the narrative is about his two children, played by Anupriya Goenka and Neeraj Pradeep Purohit, and their relationship with their mother. They have come to visit her as she struggles with a terminal illness. The story progresses to touch upon homosexuality, financial instability and a potential life of delinquency. Consequently, the current situation the characters have landed themselves in is fraught with tension and disagreements. However instead of building on it in a manner that could have led to a poignant narrative, the film falls prey to sentimentalism and unconvincing plot developments. As unresolved anger simmers just below the surface, threatening to erupt any moment, will the film be able to live up to the expectations it has set at the start?
