The director acquainted with these old ladies after her grandparents moved to the sanitarium. Like a granddaughter listening to the lonely mind of her old granny, the director discovered many heart-throbbing stories. This film was about one of these old grannies who used to sing “seven-character-verse.” Being acquainted with the lady, her daughter, granddaughter and great granddaughter, the director got to share their stories about love, marriages, and families. Though the lady did not have any schooling, her generosity and wonderful sense of humor were revealed through her words and verses, like a modern heroin living in the old era. The ancient ballads in the isolated sanitarium were being chanted to picture the relationships of these women from four different generations.
