Plot
Basant is the newest migrant in Salt Bridge, which already houses a small Indian community. He lives a happy, frictionless life with his wife and son, until he befriends Madhurima, a married woman. The friendship that starts between the two is highly questionable to the Indian community living in Salt Bridge.
