There she discovers that the home is in ruin her aging aunt is half senile and her cousin Gautam is bitter and defeated. Flashback to 1947 when India splits in two - a proud old Muslim man along with his grieving daughter-in-law take in a couple of impoverished Hindus Chand and Bhagwati into their home. Later Chand's mute sister Lajjo arrives with her young daughter Lajma. Suffering from some unnamed past trauma Lajjo is eventually sent to an asylum leaving Lajma with her uncle.
