📖 The Core Premise

The Museum of Relationships returns to the screen in N/A, bringing a fresh narrative to the various genre. At its heart, the film explores complex themes wrapped in a compelling storyline. As the plot unfolds, we see characters navigating a world where stakes are high. "Rajaditya belongs to that class of people who have a very deep-rooted ancestral legacy in North Kolkata. He resides at one part of an edifice which was probably built by his grandfather or greatgrandfather. His uncle resides at the other end of the building. He lost his parents long ago. His only sibling Jaga is mentally unsound. He has taken refuge at a street footpath. Hence the balcony, the courtyard yard, the staircase, the rooms and the roof constitute the empire of Rajaditya alone. He builds a Museum of Broken Relationships in his house. The museum becomes home to objects with varying histories ranging from the Partition, religion, citizenship and murder. His Uncle's vision of smashing the old property and selling it off to real-estate buyers confronts Rajaditya with choices between dreams and reality. There is a bridge between them. Would he reconcile with his uncle? Or submit to death"
