Baba, Baby O…

In a quietly observant slice of contemporary life, a man in his forties decides to build a family through surrogacy, a choice that reshapes his everyday world. The film opens with the gentle hum of domestic routine, the soft laughter of two young boys nicknamed Potol‑Posto filling the spaces once left empty. This unconventional start to parenthood sets a tone that is both tender and introspective, inviting viewers to linger on the subtle shifts that come with new responsibilities and unexpected affection.

Enter Megh, the surrogate father whose calm, caring nature is expressed through small, thoughtful gestures. His life, already altered by the arrival of his children, begins to intersect with that of a woman whose guarded heart hints at a complex past. Brishti carries the weight of strained family ties and a skeptical view of children, which adds an undercurrent of tension to their budding connection. Their encounters unfold in an unhurried manner—quiet conversations, shared moments of kindness, and a slow, patient building of trust that feels more like a quiet bloom than a dramatic spark.

Around them, secondary figures such as Souvik, Brishti’s boyfriend with plans that could shift the balance of everyone’s lives, loom gently in the background, suggesting that the choices of each character ripple outward. The setting—a modest home, a modest toy shop, and the surrounding neighborhood—serves as a grounded canvas where ordinary spaces become sites of subtle emotional negotiation.

The film’s mood leans toward a realistic, observational style, emphasizing the everyday over the extravagant. It asks what love looks like when it is not defined by grand gestures but by everyday acts of support, acceptance, and the quiet willingness to let a new family form in its own imperfect, hopeful way.
