The plot is derived from James Joyce's short story "The Dead".[3] This story revolves around the celebration of the 50th wedding anniversary of an old couple, Pranabendu and Manjari. In this occasion, they have invited all their relatives and friends to their ancient home, Komolini. While everyone is indulging themselves in merry making, Tublu prefers staying alone. He seems to be haunted by some previous memories which he has with this house. The celebration is short lived as hidden complexities start surfacing in the personal lives of the family members. While Pranab boasts of his royal blood and his hereditary aristocracy, he tries to avoid the presence of a crazy old man who lives alone in a dilapidated portion of the house. During dinner time, the same old man arrives at the dinner table. After seeing Pranab angrily scoffing at the poor man, Tublu loses his cool. He accuses Pranab that his vain illusions about aristocracy had been instrumental in the death of the old man's only son Sajal, with whom Tublu had a deep bond. During his youth, Pranab could not tolerate the growing friendship between Manjari and Sajal due to their difference in social status. He took her away to England and Sajal died in her absence. Manjari gets strongly reminded of Sajal's excellent singing skills after hearing a song from Tublu.
