He travels on a Mercedes, parties frequently with colleagues, but is reluctant to provide money for his ailing mother's deteriorating health's medical treatments.

When Saradindu goes to his son to ask for money for Mala's operation, Indranil humiliates his father and denies to give any financial assistance.

Hurt, in profound agony and rage, Saradindu filed a complaint against his son, on the grounds of ill-treatment of old parents.

[22] Agnivo Niyogi of The Telegraph reviewed the film and noted "With Shontaan, Raj Chakrabarty delivers a family drama that stays with you even after you have left the hall.

It takes the well-worn premise of a parent suing their child over charges of neglect but packs in all the right emotions to tug at the heartstrings."

Although he mentioned the first half to be draggy and melodramatic with a rushed climax and preachy tone, he praised the acting of the whole cast, specially Mithun, Anashua, Ritwick and Subhashree.

[26] Snigdha Dey of Aajkal reviewed the film and opined "In an unequal fight between the father and his son, "Shontaan" will have a special place in the inner core of our heart.

Besides, she praised Mithun, Ritwick and Anashua for their intensive emotional portrayal and also applauded Subhashree for playing a different role.
