She is torn between her liabilities as a mother and wife on one hand and her thirst for self-realization on the other. Should she sacrifice her quest for self-identity at the altar of nuptial happiness? Will the soul mates be reevaluating their special relationship or drift apart due to their separate sets of egos? A question faced by innumerable couples in the turbulent urban life . . .
