A 60-year-old retired government official and widower, Mr. Azgar Ali, lives alone with his driver and working people in an elite area of Dhaka. His only son, Ali Mizan, lives in London with his family. After two years, Ali Mizan comes home to see his father. Azgar Ali is suffering from dementia and memory loss. His daily routine is gardening on the roof, watching stars at night, walking in the park in the morning and talking on Skype with his granddaughter Arha in London. Due to his poor memory, Azgar Ali makes many mistakes every day. One such mistake is to transfer rupees 5 lakh to Mrs Shamima's account by mistake. Mrs. Shamima, who is in her 50s and also lonely, is a dentist by profession and is the neighbor of Azgar Ali. Her only daughter lives in London with her husband Jason. Azgar Ali and Mrs. Shamima get acquainted after the accidental money transfer, and they become friends. Azgar Ali's doctor advises the two to go to Cox's Bazar. Azgar Ali's son and his daughter-in-law Millie and Mrs. Shamima's daughter learn about their outing. Within three days, the son, daughter-in-law, and daughter of Shamima arrive from London. The emotional battle of parents and children starts with Azgar Ali and Mrs. Shamima.
