An inter-faith marriage years ago had caused a deep rift within a practising Muslim family. After all this time, a new development promises seismic change in the relationship of the son with his parents. His formerly-Hindu wife, Aishwarya, has converted, and therefore it’s time for the two families to reunite and rebuild broken bridges. Little do they realize, however, that when the parents arrive at their son’s house, with an entire bunch of bananas as a peace-offering, something far more unexpected awaits them. <br><br>


The short film weaves its story gradually, not wasting or over-utilizing a single beat. An implicit sense of subtle humor finally takes it home, ensuring that both writing and performances work in its favor all the way through.
