Set against the backdrop of the 1947 partition of India, this drama follows a Sikh farmer, Umber Singh, who is desperate for a male heir after having three daughters. When his wife gives birth to a fourth girl, he refuses to accept reality and raises the child as his son, forcing her to adopt a male identity and suppress her true gender as she grows up. The story explores how this deception shapes the child's relationships and identity, including an arranged marriage that complicates the family's secret.
