In modern Bangladesh, Jhumur marries for love and imagines life with her husband, Haroon, will continue just as it did when they were dating.

When she becomes pregnant, Jhumur is shocked to discover that Haroon does not believe the baby is his, demanding an immediate termination of the pregnancy. Overwhelmed by his distrust, Jhumur plots her payback in the arms of a handsome and artistic neighbor.

There comes a time in every marriage when secret thoughts bring forth tough questions that eventually must be answered - questions that have surfaced in the mind many times before; only to be pushed back down inside where we ignore them out of fear of what our answer would be - if the truth were really told. Afraid of the impact complete honesty could have on our lives and those around us. So instead, we choose to hide these thoughts; only allowing ourselves to ponder them during moments of extreme arousal brought on by sexual fantasies of the most perverse nature. But, once in while, someone in a marriage will break the normal pattern and choose to admit the secret lusts of their heart - and are eager to finally act upon them - no matter the cost. "So you're saying that I just turned my husband into a Cuckold by threatening him with divorce if he didn't agree to abide by all of the rules and conditions that I set forth?" She asked proudly.
