Synopsis:
In Company Limited (Seemabaddha) we meet Shyamal, an ambitious
marketing manager in a British firm in Calcutta. Living in a company flat with his young wife, he aspires to become the company director, well aware that he will have to compete with a colleague who has a relative on the board of directors. His sister-in-law Tutal arrives from Patna, and quickly becomes the confident of Shyamal, at the expense of his wife. As his chances at promotion get thinner, he realises that he must make some extremely precarious choices that will save either his job or his relationships.

The Stranger (Agantuk) sees Anila receiving a letter from a man claiming to be her uncle, a man who disappeared 35 years prior. He turns up at her family home professing to be an anthropologist, a globally seasoned traveller en route from the United States to Australia. The family, are suspicious of the stranger, believing
him to be an imposter with a financial scam to sell. After a grilling from the family's lawyer, he leaves as unexpectedly as he arrives, leaving behind a stunned family, and some very insightful observations.
