When He Was 23

Tamodeep is brilliant, sensitive, and eternally perturbed by his grandfather's prophecy that he will either be an artist or run away from home. A junior doctor by profession, Tamodeep has little communication with his near and dear ones, even lesser with his mother Sraboni, against whom he nurses a grudge for intruding into his life during his adolescent years. Quiet on the surface, Tamodeep is restless within. His desires often take complex routes and hover around Meghna, his former biology teacher, now a radio psychological counselor; Mohini, a soft-porn movie siren; and Sriparna, a law student he befriends on a cyber-social-networking site. The night before his 23rd birthday, Mohini gets admitted to his nursing home as an accident victim, which could change his life forever. In his desperate attempt to prevent Mohini from going out of his life, Tamodeep goes through a series of overlapping events involving the four women in his life--his mother Sraboni, his former teacher Meghna, his Facebook buddy Sriparna, and his ultimate fantasy Mohini--who steer him through an unique journey of enlightenment and self-realisation.
