In the professor Deepu discovers a friend, a father figure who will leave an indelible impression on him. With Deepu’s support the reluctant professor fights a court case against invasion of his privacy and violation of his fundamental rights. Dr. Siras valiantly tries to find refuge to stay away from an intolerant, homophobic society.
