Dictionary of relationships
Each film must leave a message. It is not only the performances of its actors, its dialogue, scenic beauty, its music, directorial acumen and others, which make an imprint in the minds of the viewers but also the message it leaves for them and the value it propagates for the society are the most important factors of a movie.

As the film has beautifully woven two different short stories of the eminent writer Buddhadeb Guha, one on being a father and the other on being a husband, the film definitely communicates two important values in respect of these two eternal relationships.
