The film is inspired by the true stories of Kashmiri Pandits. It takes the viewer back to 1989, when rising Islamic Jihad led to conflict in Kashmir, forcing most Hindus to flee the Valley.
According to estimates, lakhs of Kashmiri Pandit residents of the Valley migrated between February and March 1990. More of them fled in those years, with around a few hundred families left in the valley by 2011.
