Dujone (2009) Timeline Explained – Every Event in Order

The parents impose the one-year separation as a test to determine if their children's love is genuine. Both families oppose the match due to class differences, Akash comes from a wealthy family while Meghna is the daughter of a fisherman. By requiring them not to meet for a full year, the parents hope the relationship will fade. If their bond endures through this difficult period, the families agreed to consider approving their marriage.

This removes Akash from Kolkata, where Meghna lives, and gives the father closer surveillance over his son.
