With his father in prison and his brother abroad, young Rakib works as the lone housekeeper in an empty mansion belonging to Purna, a retired general whose family has been served for centuries by Rakib’s clan.

After Purna returns home for his mayoral election campaign, Rakib bonds with him and sees him as a close mentor and father figure, even becoming Purna’s assistant.
