All these five people are either going through or on the verge of a crisis in their lives. In midst of such a situation, Sisir's son and daughter-in-law leave for Meerut. And now Sisir is left completely alone. Detached from his own kin, Sisir now reaches out to his extended family by involving himself more intimately with the four new people in his life.
