The film is based on Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay's short story 'Abhagir Swargo' and stars Rafiath Rashid Mithila in the lead role.

Abhagi falls in love with Yamraj when she sees him in a play, and is affected by his words.

Before her death, Abhagi tells her son that she wishes for Sindoor and alta and that he will burn her in the wood.

[8][9] A review noted, "The spoken language of the film is totally un-Sarat Chandra-esque: major use of ‘cuss words’ and abusive language to some ears could sound too harsh, especially for those raised in a ‘bhadro’ atmosphere and with Victorian morals, who are either unaware or prefer to overlook the subaltern lingo.

Anirban has come out of the mould of following the story to a T. He has put in his interpretation, added characters of his own and created nuances.
