In the movie, Arjun's character is diagnosed with a life-altering medical diagnosis and he decides to reach out to his estranged daughter. His daughter inspires him to overcome the disease. His daughter in the movie asks him several questions, like 'What is dying?' 'Is he dying?' and 'Will he dance at her wedding?'.
On Kaun Banega Crorepati 16, Abhishek Bachchan told Amitabh Bachchan and others how he said yes to the movie because of how it shows the father-daughter bond.
