However, things take an unexpected turn when Raja Saab has a chance encounter with an elderly man who bears an uncanny resemblance to his grandfather.
Seeing his grandmother upset, Raja Saab vows to bring his grandfather home so that they can be together again. However, this decision leads him down a different path, paving the way for a story filled with emotions, surprises, and a hint of the supernatural.
