Armakanth Varma komt aan de kost als journalist bij All India Radio. Naar aanleiding van de 50e verjaardag van de onafhankelijkheid van het land, wordt hij naar een afgelegen grensprovincie gestuurd; Hij moet er de inwoners interviewen over de evolutie van hun levensomstandigheden en de strijd tegen het terrorisme. Armakanth wordt er hopeloos verliefd op een zonderlinge jonge vrouw. Zij wijst hem echter af. Niet omdat ze niet verliefd is of kan worden op hem, maar ze is een terroriste.
