Abandoned at birth by a Santal couple, Amon has been raised as a tribal village girl and aspires to create an identity of her own as a journalist in one of Kolkata's leading newspapers. A chance encounter with the city-bred and jovial Ankur will change Amon's fate forever as love blossoms between the two while Amon's quest to find her roots and become independent continues.
