Plot

[edit]

Sritama Dutta is an old Bengali widow who lives with her son, daughter-in-law and grand-daughter. Despite having a big family, she is depressed and lonely somewhere deep down her heart. To overcome this loneliness, everyday she goes for morning walk and attends the a Laughter Club. But after returning home, once again she becomes sad and melancholic. The disagreement on several opinion and arguments with her daughter-in-law made her all the more unhappy. On the other side, Praveen Sharma is an old Punjabi bachelor who also visits the same Laughter Club. Unlike her, he is merry and joyous despite his age. Being a witness to the discontent in the disconsolate married life between his brother and his wife Simran, he decided to not marry in his life.

But things fell in place and he falls in love with Sritama. Soon, they start spending more time together. Often after the Laughter club was over, he took her to Nityo Da's teashop. The story shows how two different people can fulfill the void in each other's life; Praveen is an evergreen and highly agile man and on the other hand, Sritama is solemn and grief stricken.

In this way, after spending more days together, visiting the parks, the couple lanes and teashop, Praveen decided to propose Sritama for their marriage. One day he proposed Sritama to be her wife. This brought immense anger and discontent among Sritama's family members. But after a lot of drama and perplexity, she agreed to tie the knot with Praveen. The film depicts the journey of this senile couple from falling in love to marriage through apt comedy and deep emotions. It showed the social stigmas, cultural differences, emotional values attached with old people falling in love and the difficulties of overcoming them. At the end, the film conveyed the message that if the right person comes to one's life, his or her dull life can become vibrant and cheerful; no matter what their age is.

Shamayita Chakraborty of OTTplay rated the film 3 out of 5 stars and termed it as "A simple and easy-flowing family drama."

He termed it as a "Complete family cinema". She praised the director for successfully showing a deep social issue; love between two elderly people in a light way with the help of comedy and emotions. He also praised the screenplay, music and the roles of all other actors but criticized Saswata for overacting at certain points.[46] Alokprasad Chattyopadhyay of Aajkal rated the film on a positive note. He wrote "Sinha proves her directorial mettle in her debut film. Instead of taking any formulaic approach, Sinha wrote a different film.
