Plot

In today's day of aggression and manipulation, Manohar Singh still harps on traditional themes such as honesty, affection and sincerity... But he has to face pitfalls every day for treading such a path!

Sypnosis

Pal Chhin is about the conflicts between good and evil. The mounting pressures of modern life coupled with never-ending desire make traditional values look farcical. The mantras for success today are aggression and manipulation. The protagonist, Manohar Singh still harps on traditional themes such as honesty, affection and sincerity. He still believes that if you are honest to yourself and good to others, there is no way you can't succeed! But he has to face pitfalls every day for treading a path, which is so out of sync with the present system. He has his detractors in his house, like his eldest son Ranjit who believes in the 'instant culture'. For him, the end is more important than the means, and definitely more important than his father's idealism.

Manohar Singh wants to make a statement that all is not lost and there is still some hope left, that we can lead our lives with dignity and belief in our values, still be successful in the accepted sense. These are the moments in our lives, which lead our destinies.
