Plot
[edit | edit source]Non-resident Bengali Radhika (Bipasha Basu) marries thespian poet Indranil Mitra (Prosenjit Chatterjee) to settle in Kolkata. While Indranil is immersed in the surreal world of words, rhythms, rhymes, and imaginations, Radhika single-handedly manages the private and public aspects of married life. Radhika gets wholesome support from their housemaid Priyobala Das (also called Nondor maa). While the apparently irresponsible and introverted Indranil carries out one selfish deed after other (like quitting his job after winning an award), Radhika stands like a rock to make the family financially sound.
All the reluctance and indifference from Indranil makes Radhika's heart gravitate towards Shekhar (Jisshu Sengupta), her colleague and Indranil's biggest admirer. Radhika becomes attracted to Shekhar but cannot abandon the unpredictability and histrionics of her spouse.[citation needed]
