Sheena Saxena, Hrishitaa Bhatt, arrives home when her mother, Nandita Saxena, Ameesha Patel, tells her that her father, Shekhar Saxena, Aftab Shivdasani, is dying from illness and wants to meet her. Sheena refuses to see him, because he abandoned her and her mother for sixteen years when she was just six. Yet, as her mother gently presses, she eventually agrees and finds him in a frail state, cared for by a devoted nurse. Unable to express his feelings, Shekhar passes his diary to Sheena, a private record of the events that fractured the family, and invites her to read the truth behind his break with them.
