SCENT OF THE SOIL (PB)

Shubhojit Singh is at the
pinnacle of his career as a civil servant, having won the Prime Minister’s
Award twice; however, his personal life is in a shambles. His wife has left
him and he has become a stranger to his own children. When a sudden health crisis
brings the whole family together, Shubhojit is left reminiscing about his
younger days in the village—of the times spent with friends, splashing in the
village pond and climbing trees and of meaningful relationships. Just four
years short of his retirement, Shubhojit decides to go back to his roots, to
live with nature, to a life which is not dictated by structures—a life where
he is free and unencumbered.Will he succeed? Will his family approve? Or,
will it prove to be an impulsive and hasty decision?
