Omorshongi

Omorshongi

The story revolves around two childhood sweethearts, Anurag and Joyee, who have been inseparable since their school days. They have been soulmates since the 5th grade. After being in love for many years, their marriage has been fixed, and they have brought a new house too, for moving in after marriage. But tragedy strikes their life as they are on the verge of starting a new phase of life together. Unexpectedly, Joyee dies of a heart attack just a day before the wedding. Anurag's world, once teeming with literary inspiration, now stagnates in an abyss of grief. But this doesn't end their love story. He starts seeing fleeting apparitions of Joyee—her glimpses caught in mirror reflections and familiar corners of the room. He soon realised, what initially appeared to be hallucinatory projections of sorrow, had turned into an unsettling truth. Joyee has returned as a ghost, unwilling to leave Anurag behind. Anurag, an exhausted novelist, is perplexed by the complexity of the situation. Although initially terrified, he slowly starts to enjoy her presence, convincing himself that fate has given him a bonus round with the love of his life. He further realised that only he can see Joyee's ghost, owing to the strong bonding of love in between them. Joyee is there, nagging, scolding, and comforting Anurag while refusing to fade into oblivion. After a few days, Anurag also perceived that neither can he touch her nor can they live a truly shared life.
