The movie takes us on an eventful ride with Sudha as she explores the invisible borders of freedom permitted by her married life. Sudha is quickly exposed to the dangers of leading a parallel relationship even though her notions are clear with Harsh. Raima Sen deserves all the applause for essaying Sudha to perfection as her chemistry with other actors on screen is nothing but phenomenal.

Rannvijay Singh also essays an interesting character in the film as the private detective for Sudha’s husband Vaibhav. Portrayed as a symbol of moral policing and misogynistic ideals of the society at first, it’s hard for the viewers to agree with his conservative methods. Rannvijay’s character undergoes a massive transformation in the story as we completely look at him from a different angle by the end of the movie.
