Plot
[edit]The protagonist Aditi's unhappy marriage came to an end when her husband Pramit had an affair and wanted a divorce. Sayan, a scriptwriter for television soaps also had a break up. His longtime girlfriend Debjani dumped him for someone rich.
Aditi and Sayan met in Darjeeling in rather unusual circumstances. Hurt and desperately unhappy at the way her marriage came to an end, Aditi was attempting suicide when Sayan saved her. In spite of the differences in their age, they found some solace in each other and a friendship developed. A few days of fun filled adventure opened up their feelings. Slowly Aditi began to feel happy and alive. Sayan also began to overcome the anguish of the break up from Debjani. They realized the true meaning of life, and how wonderful it is to wake up next day. They decided to spend every moment of life happily. Both felt deeply attracted and romance brewed in between them. But Aditi hesitates. She loved him but was not quite convinced about marriage. Sayan explains that time has changed. Their age difference or Aditi having a child from previous marriage are no more a matter of worry in today's India.
Suddenly Aditi's husband arrives in Darjeeling and catches up with Aditi. He confessed to Aditi of his mistakes of thinking about the divorce. Aditi's husband pleads with her to take him back in her life and restart their life together. He insists that, it will also help their son as well. What she will do now? Her home of 6 years and many memories with their son and this new found sense of happiness – Aditi ponders for a few moments. It was not a difficult choice for her. She has found more joy and togetherness with Sayan than the years with her husband. One drove her to the verge of committing suicide and the other has given her promise of a new life.
