SYNOPSIS

The story narrates the journey of two women, Anita an aspiring actor, and Padma, a painter in the making, who fall passionately in love with each other. The two put up an ardent fight against societal and family barriers to sustain their relationship. However, love is not enough when the realities of the middle class society hit the struggling artists hard. How the two artists in love evolve to break away from the cis-cultured life style whilst sustaining their identity as artists holds the rest of the film.
