Synopsis: Mr Kamran is a towering, award-winning figure in Bengali literature. Yet his son Rudra is unfamiliar with his father's literary works and is indifferent to his legacy. This is due to a language barrier and his western lifestyle. This stems from a fascination with English culture. It alienates Rudra from his parents. In an interview with a reporter, Mr Kamran realised that no-one will inherit his creative output. Furthermore, he and his wife Sajeda are drifting apart.
The focus shifts to single mother Nayla Haque, and her attraction to Irfan who is Pakistani. The cultural differences, perceived hostility and language barrier are a challenge for their relationship. Nayla is aware of the ensuing tension between romantic love and ancestral love, or a sense of belonging. All protagonists face inner conflicts. Can love help resolve these issues or are love's many faces the root of the problem.
