In the ancient land of Tripura, a king, a queen, and a priest rule over a kingdom steeped in superstition. The people believe the prosperity of the land depends on the blessings of the fierce Goddess Kali. If the Goddess is angered, it is said, destruction will follow. The queen, childless and desperate, clings to this belief. Convinced that a grand animal sacrifice will earn the Goddess's favour and grant her fertility, she turns to the priest for divine intervention. Together, they prepare a lavish ritual that will spill innocent blood. But the king, disturbed by the brutality of such traditions, declares a ban on animal sacrifice throughout his realm. A battle ensues: the queen and the priest defend the sacrifice as sacred duty, while the king sees it as inhumane violence.

What is a name? Is it merely a word? A name of a person denotes his/her external identity. It is related to each and every social action and reaction of a person with other persons. The film deals with the plight of the protagonist whose name has changed overnight. The problem aggravates when the changed name connotes religious and cultural differences when Shymal (a Hindu name) or Salim (a Muslim name), the protagonist becomes Salim or Shyamal. The film brings into focus the crisis in his life and the pain of being ostracized and alienated by everyone that matters to him. In such a situation of loneliness, Shyamal identifies with his next-door neighbor who has also been alienated and is fighting his lonely existence.
