Plot

edit

The film delineates the journey of a bright mind which is tormented by contradiction in the scenario of rapid socio technical age.[2] He has a lucrative yet anxiety ridden vocation which does not allow him to nurture his long cherished dream to be a singer. His life is squandered as he is unable to settle equilibrium between family obligation and personal ambition. He is like the desperate sailor whose ship is on the verge of sinking. In his mind he creates a utopia and oscillates between past and present helplessly to capture an ideal locale. The film offers an open ending for the viewers to find out the demon’s lot.[3]
