Dilip gets into an electronic engineering program in Bombay. Before going, he asks his father (Anna) for Rs. 1.50 lakh, but his father only gives him Rs. 10,000, which Dilip refuses.
After finishing his studies, Dilip gets a job in the US. He returns home for a day to ask his father for Rs. 5 lakh, which his father gives him. Dilip then goes to the US.
Eight months later, Dilip comes back and convinces his parents to go to the US with him. He tricks his father into signing over power of attorney instead of visa papers. Dilip misuses this power and never takes his parents to the US.
The film is based on Manjushree Gokhale's Marathi novel Avartan and is made on sole intention that children should treat their parents with love and respect.[6] Joshi and Kulkarni, who worked together over twenty years ago in the Marathi cult TV series Aabhalmaya, reunite in this film. It also marks Luxembourgish actress Niharica Raizada Marathi film debut.[7]
