Evocative and exquisitely crafted, this family-oriented romantic drama revolves around the two families of Viswanath, one which is legitimate in the eyes of society, and the other, frowned upon for being illegitimate. This intense tale depicts the complications, controversies and conflict caused by this problem. Entrusted with the task of chairing an inquiry commission involving an influential politician, alcoholic Vishwanath must attempt to deal with issues that he has with in personal life. Namely, his two wives, and their two sons, Gautam and Ashok - who share two things - bitterness at their father, and hatred for each other. How will the destructive relationship between the half-brothers pan out? Will the conflict and animosity between Viswanath's two families ever be resolved?
