Gotro centers on themes of family, communal harmony, and human relationships across cultural or religious divides. The plot follows the emotional journey of characters brought together by unexpected circumstances, exploring trust, prejudice, and reconciliation.
Gotro (which translates to "Lineage" or "Clan") is a compelling narrative that explores the intersection of family dynamics, property disputes, and religion. The story revolves around an elderly Hindu widow, Taru Baudi (played by Anashua Majumdar), who lives alone in her ancestral home in Kolkata. Her only son lives abroad, leaving her isolated amidst a society that views her property with greedy eyes.
The plot thickens when a young Muslim boy, Riyaz (played by Saheb Bhattacharya), comes to live in the house as a paying guest. The film navigates the tension between Taru Baudi’s initial hesitation and the eventual bond that forms between the two characters, contrasting their growing friendship against the backdrop of religious intolerance and societal pressure.
