Strange are the attitudes of Man, who born of a woman treats her with utter contempt, if she bears him daughters only. He is under the obsession that the name of his family and dynasty is known and continued by the male child only. So, when Thakur Chandra Prakash Singh’s wife Sharda, is expecting for the fourth time after having three daughters gets an ultimatum: if she bears another girl, Thakur will bring a second wife. Sharda panics, resulting in a premature delivery. The Thakur is overjoyed that Sharda has given birth to a baby boy (Vishal) atlast! He lavishes all his love, care and wealth on bringing up his son. Vishal grows up to be handsome youngman and falls in love with with Ruby Miranda who studies on a scholarship and does part-time work as a librarian to support her father. The Thakur puts his foot down at his alliance. Vishal rebels and soon, happy times and a blissful togetherness are shattered Nerve shattering and heart-rendering events follow in quick succession. The follies of the Thakur’s dogmas and obstinacy, his dream of the great vansh – all lie in ruins before him. The spectre of Vishal’s death shakes him to the bones and as truth dawns on him, the mighty Thakur struck by an on rush of realities is suddenly dislodged from his high pedestal.
