With its heart in the right place, and positive intentions, the film tells the story of struggles of primarily two characters during the national lockdown that followed in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. It is the story of a young girl who runs a shop, and of a man who irons clothes in his local neighbourhood. However, as the pandemic puts an end to any non-essential human interaction, the two find themselves losing their source of livelihood.
Shot during the lockdown by cast and crew members in different cities, the film is a sincere endeavour to bring to light how small acts of kindness and empathy can sometimes enable society to sustain itself, no matter how hard the going gets. The actor who plays young Chanchal is especially notable for her charm and screen presence.
