An Unfinished Letter

A large scoop of sleeping pills on hand, Kolkata-based Mrinalini Mitra writes a suicide note blaming no one and leaving her earthly belongings to Chintan Nair. Before taking the pills, she decides to destroy all documentation pertaining to her colorful past. While going through these, she reflects on her life as an 'Urvashi' award-winning actress, who made a name for herself with her very first movie 'Rajni'. She also remembers her life in a shanty Chawl with her mother, whose husband had abandoned her, leaving her alone to bring up two children, Mrinalini and Ranajoy. She also reminisces about her romance with married filmmaker Siddhartha Sarkar; marrying him in a Mandir, getting intimate, giving birth to daughter Sohini, then leaving the child in Canada to be adopted and brought up by Ranajoy and his German wife, Julia Campbell. When Siddhartha refuses to marry her, and instead gets his wife Maithili pregnant, she leaves the film industry and spends more time with Sohini. She then remembers her comeback with the role of Kunti in 'Born of the Son', and her affair with Imtiaz Choudhury, who played 'Karan' in the same movie. She then recollects the traumatic event that compelled her to consume a large quantity of sleeping pills--years before she even thought of writing this suicide note.
