Shinu to run away from his home in the heat of the moment. After days of waiting, Ramchand sets on a journey in his bicycle all the way from Uttar Pradesh to Kolkata in order to locate Shinu who has been trafficked to Kolkata. This journey helps Ramchand realize about the hardships of society and the struggles of the people who fall below the poverty line, their pains, angers, happiness and their never giving up attitude which keeps the world going, no matter what and how worse the circumstances are. This journey turns him into a man of blames and excuses where he finds himself in trouble from time to time, where he ends up being the person who is at the wrong place at the wrong time.
