CGiii Comment

"He wasn't he till he wasn't she."

Sainu and Amina were thick friends when they were kids and this attraction between the two had grown irresistibly making them inseparable. But, there was one major hitch. Inside Amina was a man. As they slipped into adolescence, this reality became a stark and unbearable one. One day, Amina disappears from home and her whereabouts are unknown. Sainu is reluctantly married off to a local guy. But, almost ten years later, a stranger, a man, appears at the village. He is Adraman. But, things get complicated as it is revealed that Adraman is none other than Amina who had undergone a sex change surgery to release the man inside her. The old love is kindled, but it's a taboo. Adraman is shunned by the community and rendered unable to find any work. He is also treated as a sex object by some males who are intrigued by his vague gender. He is an object of ridicule. Sainu and Amina/Adraman and their love reach a predictable dead end.
