Plot

The film centers around the character of Saumil, a young boy who has been diagnosed with a medical condition for which surgery has been recommended. However, Saumil refuses the operation, and as the story unfolds, his brother Kashul becomes convinced that he is growing a tail. The film shows the family dynamics and struggles as they navigate the situation, with Saumil's mother, father, and grandfather playing important roles in the process.

The film tackles themes related to family, health, and the challenges of making difficult medical decisions. While the plot itself is fictional, it shows problems that someone may have in real life. The film's storytelling approach is intended by the directors to be emotionally engaging and thought-provoking, while also trying to maintain a neutral and objective tone.
